Exciting news!🥳In mid-2025, I’ll be joining the LCSB at the University of Luxembourg as an Associate Professor! Interested in working at the intersection of cellular (neuro)biology, neuroimmunology, chemical biology & microscopy? Stay tuned for open positions or drop me an email
Our lab @TueNeuroCampus is currently seeking a technical and/or research assistant jobs.medizin.uni-tuebingen.d…. We also have exciting opportunities available for a couple of MSc thesis projects. If you are interested, please contact me via email!

* we also have some fantastic images that don't use fluorescence microscopy!!
We're looking for new team member(s) to join us @TueNeuroCampus. The position(s) can be filled at the technician or research assistant level. The funding for these positions is currently available until 31.12.24. Interested? Please contact me by email. The advert link coming soon
Excited to discuss some basics and share insights on how to establish and use click chemistry-based labeling for microscopy! 🧪🔬See you at #MiFoBio2023

Super proud of our new PhD! Existence is pain, as Nevena liked to put it and remind us of during difficult moments. But then there are great achievements and happy memories like these! @cheerful_neuron can now (finally) enjoy her life as a cheerful PhD! Congratulations again! 🥳
Looking forward to the exciting program @SMLM_Symposium in Vienna! If you would like to hear about our work on small labeling tags using click chemistry and unnatural amino acids, come to my talk on Wednesday or approach me during the conference #SMLMS2023
We're very happy to announce the conference program for SMLMS 2023! Looking forward to all of the upcoming presentations. See you in Vienna! 😎 #SMLMS2023

Made by overlaying 3 independent images of neuronal cell lines expressing click-labelled neurofascin 186, this isn't the most physiologically relevant illustration of our work on click labeling of NF186 and Na+ channels in neurons, but I love the colors & shape of these cells 😊
Issue 12 is complete

Our cover image shows click-labelled NF186 in neuroblastoma cells. Cells expressing three different NF186 constructs overlaid in one image. See article by @cheerful_neuron et al.

On #TechnicalTuesday we are highlighting work by @cheerful_neuron, @Nikic_Lab, et al. on click labelling in neurons. They design AAV vectors to add unnatural amino acid-based tags to their target proteins and use SPIEDAC for labelling.

Thrilled to see this published 🥳 journals.biologists.com/jcs/… Accompanied by a cover image @J_Cell_Sci and @cheerful_neuron's first author interview! 🤗 Very proud of her work and thankful to everyone involved for their contributions!
We even got a tree planted! Great initiative from the Company of Biologists🌳

We're looking for a technical/research assistant to join my lab @TueNeuroCampus. Depending on the starting date, the position will be first limited to 1 or 1.5 years. If you're interested in cell & molecular (neuro)biology, contact me by email. The advert link will follow soon.
📢GCE4all webinar series! If you would like to hear how genetic code expansion (GCE) & click chemistry can be used for live-cell protein labeling, you can register for the upcoming (February 16th) webinar here: gce4all.oregonstate.edu/tool…
We're over the moon for our new PhD, esp. me seeing my 1st PhD student graduate! Impossible to put it all into words, but Aleksandra was brave to join my group at the very beginning & she didn't only survive but she did great & got this amazing PhD hat (& other presents)😉
One of the biggest challenges (at least for me) when trying to manage crazy deadlines & heavy workloads is to stay calm & clear-headed. In some situations (like now😂) nothing helps, but youtu.be/WVP3fUzQHcg usually helps me focus & calms me down. Any other recommendations?
Uncertainty is tough. Mobility too. Parenthood (w/o extended family around),but also dual careers, long distance relationships/marriages, infertility, adoption... life struggles that don't only happen to us in academia, but that can get more complicated with our "uncertain" lives
Replying to @Fran_Bottanelli
I wish I had job stability. That would really help. Uncertainty is killing me and for sure I am getting demotivated… I for sure understand other mothers/parents that call it quit. I totally understand…
And here is the press release (in German) about the award that Aleksandra, a PhD student in my group, won🥳. We are all very proud of Aleksandra and this work! And we look forward to unlocking the full potential of this exciting technique!
Attempto-Preis für Sichtbarmachung einzelner Proteine in lebenden Nervenzellen: Aleksandra Arsić wurde für ihre herausragende Arbeit ausgezeichnet, die neue Möglichkeiten bei bildgebenden Verfahren in der #Hirnforschung eröffnet. Herzlichen Glückwunsch!: uni-tuebingen.de/universitae…
We have already expanded on this in the exciting follow-up work from @cheerful_neuron on labeling one of the crucial neuronal compartments. This required further optimizations of the method and is described here: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
Check it out!📢Aleksandra, a PhD student from my group, won a publication award & will talk about her work on bioorthogonal click chemistry for fluorescent protein labeling in neurons: nature.com/articles/s41467-0… I'm so happy for her😊
