Thrilled to see this fantastic story about #ovulation finally published in @NatureCellBio! I'm happy to have contributed to this project led by @LastChrisThomas and @Tabea_Marx in @SchuhLab at @mpi_nat 🥳

Each month an #egg is ovulated from the #ovary, starting the journey of reproduction. But how does ovulation occur?🥚 Our latest work in @NatureCellBio led by @LastChrisThomas and @Tabea_Marx, describes the control of #ovulation using live imaging. bit.ly/3Ya8dEL (1/7)

Excited to have my second first author paper published in @NatureCellBio! 🥳 This was a truly multidisciplinary study, combining the expertise of our various collaborators. Extremely grateful for the opportunity to contribute to this fantastic story!

Women are born with all their oocytes, which need to stay viable for decades to ensure fertility. How are they maintained for that long? Our latest research in @NatureCellBio reveals that oocyte maintenance involves exceptional protein longevity. nature.com/articles/s4155… (1/9)

Defended my PhD this week 🎓 It takes a community to get someone to the finish line of their PhD. I would like to thank the @SchuhLab for providing an intellectually stimulating and inspiring environment, and my family and friends near and far for their support!
Schuh Lab@SchuhLab

Congratulations to our newly minted Dr. @sarahpenir on her great PhD defence! Thank you for your fantastic work on ovarian aging and all your contributions to the lab, Sarah! What an exciting feat; now it's time to celebrate! 🥳🍾🥂 @mpi_nat @IMPRS_GS

@IMPRS_GS Thank you so much for all your support over the years! I remember five years ago, after a series of rejections from PhD programs, I was ready to give up on science. Taking my chance on this program is easily one of the best decisions I have made in my life!

Our new paper in @CellCellPress answers a decades-old question: what is the function and composition of enigmatic structures called cytoplasmic lattices in mammalian oocytes? -> They are storage sites for essential proteins for the early embryo! bit.ly/45XwShG🧵(1/10)

Human oocytes separate chromosomes with an unstable spindle. This often causes aneuploidy, causing miscarriages & infertility. Our latest work in @ScienceMagazine shows why human spindles are so unstable, and how we can make them work more reliably. bit.ly/366wvZ9 (1/8)

I'm currently trying to get better at playing classical guitar pieces but one major impediment is remembering that the frets DO NOT have a 0-based indexing...

@anamariaelek Same! I'm exactly where I want to be, yet I'm sure my younger self wouldn't even know how to begin to describe where I am now.

I look at stained cells and I often wonder how is it that a cell can have so much stuff inside! How do these stuff find each other and not get lost in the maze of other stuff?

Only 1 in 3 fertilizations leads to a successful pregnancy. Embryo fate is often already decided directly after fertilization, when the chromosomes from each parent combine, as we report in our latest study (out now in @CellCellPress). cell.com/cell/fulltext/… (1/8)

I somewhat get a heightened sense of self-importance whenever I turn on my work email's out-of-office auto reply.

A sperm fuses with an egg to form a zygote. After fertilization, the maternal and paternal chromosomes need to migrate and meet in middle of the zygote. Our latest work in @NatureComms reveals how this is achieved in mouse zygotes. (1/5) 🔗tinyurl.com/wghs1 @mpi_bpc

Highly recommended read for understanding the fantastic biology behind each base in the Pfizer RNA vaccine!
