Moving to the other side! See you there @sebwenk.bsky.social

Another famous quote of Carl Sagan that should be never forgotten in research practice (or anywhere, in reality): ‘… Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence …'

@DSchindler_PDR Looks very "gezellig". Merry Christmas

It's time to say thank you to the team for a wonderful 2024! Thank you all for your hard work and making this year such a great time. Pictures are from our Christmas get together last week. Thank you - you are amazing!

@vdlorenzo_CNB @KarinSchann @GlekasP @Frances2535120 Thank you Victor for this amazing lunch and much more for receiving and hosting us in beautiful Madrid. The year went quick but it was truly inspirational and mind opening (more about that in an extra tweet ;-)

Pre-Xmas Lab lunch incl farewell of @KarinSchann, @SebWenk, @GlekasP & @Frances2535120. We will miss you in 2025 😢. So privileged to work with this super-special bunch of people 👇

@DisseEditors Thank you. Will do that.

@SebWenk check City Center (Centrum): Overview: The heart of Groningen, popular among students and young professionals due to its proximity to shops, restaurants, and cultural activities.

💥💥💥 !!! Please re-post !!! 💥💥💥 Hello Community, We’re excited to announce that we’re moving to Groningen in January 2025 to embark on a new chapter in our research careers. For this, we need a house/flat and we hope to find a nice place with your help.

@incaRNAtolab @JWVeening Thanks Danny. Looking forward to getting started and meeting in person. Will have a look at the BEDR apartments 🙏

@SebWenk @JWVeening Welcome Sebastian and Karin. I can suggest you to reach out to BEDR Apartments. They have wonderful furnished apartments for expats that might help you while you look for more stable housing.

We’re looking forward to becoming part of the Groningen. Please contact me, if you have a place to rent or if you know someone who has. Thank you for your support!

In our free time, we enjoy cycling, hiking, and exploring nature, as well as cultural activities such as theater and cinema.

Dicen que por este otro sitio las cosas están un poco más limpias y la gente es más educada, así que quien tenga un perfil y quiera, encantado de conocerlo por allí

Paper alert! 🎉 Excited to share this collaboration from my PhD time @wethebarevenlab and @erblabs! We built a new bridge in central metabolism, connecting acetyl-CoA and pyruvate via a novel, engineered pathway. For some personal highlights, come along 🧵 nature.com/articles/s4146…

@vdlorenzo_CNB @CSIC Too late for me, but better late than never!

I am truly glad that, after decades of foreign members in the lab enduring all kinds of bureaucratic hassles—if not outright humiliations—just to work with us (I could write a book on this), the @CSIC has finally published a proper guide on how to join us csic.es/en/internation…

For the past two years, we have been working on a novel approach to identify origins of transfer by conjugation in plasmids from any bacterial species. We are thrilled to see this work now published in @NatureMicrobiol after thorough peer review! nature.com/articles/s4156…

Cannot believe 35 yr have passed since this photo in Berlin, Nov 1989. My Lab in Braunschweig where I was postdoc-ing with @KennethTimmis was a mere 2.5 h drive away 😱! #DeutscheEinheit

📢 Happy to announce that the first experimental pre-print of my PhD is out! We (@LabNikel) present CIFR (Clone, Integrate, Flip-Out, Repeat): a transposon-based tool for integrating synthetic modules in Gram-negative bacteria (shorturl.at/XXHpi)! A X-torial 👇 (1/11)

That’s a wrap for #ASBE7! Truly enjoyed all the wonderful oral and poster presentations, and so thankful to have had the opportunity to present the work from the #ReCREA lab in such a cool venue 🔭✨

Today, I had the honor to present some of my work at the University of Cordoba. Thank you @HenningKirst for the invitation and the hospitality! I am looking forward to collaborating on #Synbio #Sustainability & #BMCs in the near future.
