This morning we stepped into the fascinating world of selective autophagy with Alexandra Stolz, RNA structure determination with Harald Schwalbe, and bacterial drug resistance with Martin Pos 🧫 all with research groups at Goethe University.

A packed and inspiring morning at #IMPRS_CBP! 🧫 We explored autophagy, developmental biology, and protein transporters with @wilflinglab.bsky.social, Bernhard Hampölz and @ihaenelt.bsky.social. Three great talks before lunch even hit the table!

We wrapped up the day talking about all things microscopy! 🔎
From Electron Microscopy with Werner Kühlbrandt to Light Microscopy with Andreas Jener, both from the Max Planck Institute of Biophysics.

Day 2 of #IMPRS_CBP: cell death & cutting-edge imaging 🔬
We explored different types of cellular death with Uris Ros, and saw how #CryoET lets us visualize molecular machines in stunning detail with Beata Turoňová (both from MPI of Biophysics).

Day 1 of the Symposium on Cellular Biophysics 2026 is a wrap! 🥳🔬
Huge thanks to faculty members
@idikic.bsky.social and @heilemannlab.bsky.social for two fantastic opening talks on cellular homeostasis and super-resolution microscopy.

Congratulations to @Lukas Schartel and @Julian von Ehr on defending their doctoral theses! 🎓
Lukas did his work in the Lemke Lab (JGU Mainz) and Julian in the Schlundt Lab (Goethe Uni). Proud of our IMPRS-CBP cohort!
All the best to Dr. Schartel & Dr. Ehr! ✨
