Im Hintergrund ist ein schmaler, futuristisch beleuchteter Gang im Jülich Supercomputing Centre am Forschungszentrum Jülich zu sehen. Links und rechts stehen die Racks des Exascale-Supercomputers JUPITER, deren Seitenverkleidungen mit organisch wirkenden schwarzen Linienmustern gestaltet sind. Warmes orangefarbenes Licht beleuchtet den Korridor. Im Vordergrund steht in blauen Textfeldern die Aufschrift: „JUPITER: Europe’s first supercomputer reaches 1 Exaflop/s“. Oben rechts befindet sich das Logo des Forschungszentrums Jülich.

A dinosaur skeleton is partially visible to the right. At the top, white sans-serif text appears in a green box reading, “BEYOND NOW: HOW DOES SCIENCE SHAPE THE FUTURE?” A small credit at the bottom reads, “© Felix Petermann / Max Delbrück Center.”

Update to this story!! More than two weeks after Harvard's win in court against the Trump administration, millions in research grant money begin flowing back to the university.

Harvard vs Trump: research funds still mostly frozen despite court win
US funding agencies might violate a judge’s ruling if they continue to withhold money.

Ancient cells called Asgard archaea were first discovered at the hydrothermal vent site called Loki's Castle in 2010. Their discovery has shaken up our view of the Tree of Life. www.quantamagazine.org/tiny-tubes-r...

Postdoc🚨!

Come join our HFSP team to uncover how chromatin moves in cells and what this means for genome function! Great opportunity to combine single-cell genomics, live imaging and polymer physics in the unique mammalian retina with @andersshansen.bsky.social, Davide Michieletto & Sandra Tenreiro
Wissenschaftliche*r Mitarbeiter*in/ Postdoc (m/f/d)
Chromatin ist nicht unbeweglich. Es handelt sich um ein hochdynamisches Material, dessen 3D-Struktur zentrale genomische Prozesse – von der Transkription bis zur DNA-Reparatur – steuert. Doch wie verhält sich Chromatin als Material – als Flüssigkeit, Feststoff oder viskoelastisches Gel –, um diese Funktionen in lebenden Zellen auszuführen? Ohne eine Antwort auf diese Frage können wir nicht vollständig verstehen, wie Chromatin bei Krankheiten gestört wird.

This sounds really interesting and seems to be in the similar motivation as GPU was developed.

More than 1,000 scientists took to the streets yesterday in Buenos Aires and other cities in Argentina wearing gas masks to protest the collapse of science in the country, which they say was initiated by their government.

Photograph of a lab scene: The image shows four individuals wearing white lab coats and blue gloves gathered around a laboratory table. They appear to be working with petri dishes, pipettes, and various lab equipment. The lab is clean and brightly lit, with white cabinetry, a fridge in the background, and scientific instruments on the counters.

Detecting traces of proteins in blood that signal early disease: NanoProt, a collaboration between Matthias Selbach’s lab (www.mdc-berlin.de/selbach) at the #mdcBerlin and Surflay Nanotec, uses magnetic nanoparticles to “fish out” rare proteins via mass spectrometry. Funded by #ERDF and IBB.
Black and white portrait of a person [Matthias Selbach] holding a magnifying glass up to his face, looking intently towards the camera. The image includes the European Union co-funding logo and the Max Delbrück Center logo. A blue border frames the image.
