CC-TOP Biocatalysis

Wishing you a Merry Christmas and happy holidays from the CC-TOP crew! 🎄❄️✨ May your agar plates be festive and colorful! 🧫🧑‍🎨 #agarart #merrychristmas #phdlife

@SustMom @GPoelarends @enzymicals @Merck @willfinnigan @ASTRAZENECAUK We came out of this experience enriched with new personal and professional perspectives, eager to find out where our next journey will take us and charged to meet again for our next conference! What a (CC-TOP) network!!!

@SustMom @GPoelarends @enzymicals @Merck @willfinnigan @ASTRAZENECAUK 5. Finally we thank Dr Michael Breuer for enlightening us on platform chemicals and the industrial partners and guests who participated at the round table discussion and gave us key lessons from success stories and failures but skills required to succeed in an industrial setting

It has already been a month since the third and final CC-TOP training school in the vibrant city of Las Palmas, Gran Canaria.☀ We recall the moments that marked most this incredible experience and we want to thank one by one all the guests who guided us through this training:

Our ESR 8 Lucrezia Lanza, is diving into intense days of HPLC analysis at the University of Zagreb! 👩‍🔬 She is developing a kinetic model for a novel ThDP dependent enzyme. Join us in wishing the best of luck on this thrilling project.🍀🚀 #Research #Innovation #Teamwork

We are thrilled to share the exciting news that ESR9 @arbia_giuseppe has begun his collaboration at BASF with ESR11 Mireia Salvado Pau and Dr. Michael Breuer. His task will focus on the optimization and scale-up of enzyme cascade reactions. We wish them a fruitful journey!

ESR5, Alessia Tonoli (@AlessiaTonoli), has begun her secondment at the University of Göttingen (@uniGoettingen) 🧪🇩🇪 She’s now working on crystallizing novel transketolases and uncovering their structure 😍💎 Let’s Gö(ttingen)!

CCTOP is going industrial! 🦾 We announce our 3rd training school! 🎉 Our ESRs will have the chance to take a look into the world of research in industry, learn about patents, industrial processes and sustainable chemistry while networking through a special workshop! Exciting!🤩

Another day another secondment🙌🏼 Diletta Arceri (ESR 15) is developing a droplet based method for the screening of Dddk activity at the @UAM_Madrid together with John Martinez (ESR 2).

What a beautiful and sunny day in Göttingen 😎☀️! For his secondment, Andrea Rizzo, our ESR 10, is working at the @uniGoettingen together with Camilla Leogrande (ESR 6) and Massimo Di Mascio (ESR 12) on the crystallization of a DERA aldolase. Good luck! 👨‍🔬

Just back from an incredible experience at the BioTrans conference where all the ESRs of the CC-TOP project came together! The connections made and ideas exchanged were invaluable. Huge thanks to the organizers for their splendid job in bringing us together! #MSCA #ITN #H2020

Just wrapped up an amazing #MUZZAScienceWeek in Zagreb! The excitement among children and young people was palpable as they delved into the fascinating world of science. This year's theme, "Smart Future," showcased groundbreaking advancements in STEM.

A huge thank you to @Scienceseed for their work in bringing our animated video to life! #motionGraphics #animation #biotech

Drumroll please...we're thrilled to announce the release of our promotional video featuring the groundbreaking technology from our CC-TOP project! Watch it now to get a sneak peek into our work and learn more about the power of enzymes #MSCA #bio #H2020 #scicomm #AcademicTwitter

Nice collaboration with Kroutil’s group on Biocatalytic Transamination of Aldolase-Derived 3-Hydroxy Ketones, which allow access to both diastereomers of the 1,3-amino alcohol motifs. See the publication in ASC onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

Happy #MayDay everyone! 🎉🌸 Let's celebrate the arrival of spring, the beauty of nature, and the hard work of us all. May this day be a reminder of the power of unity and the fight for workers rights. Enjoy the festivities and the well-deserved rest! #InternationalWorkersDay
