Structure and function of RNA-protein complexes
We warmly welcome Sichen, Iskander and Jonas, our latest group members who joined in the past few months. Sichen Su did his PhD in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the Fudan University in Shanghai under the supervision of Dr. Jinbiao Ma.He investigated various aspects of RNA metabolism…
A warm welcome to Simonas and Mani, our two newest lab members! Manikandan Parthasarathy did his PhD at the Indian Institute of Science under the supervision of Prof. Mahavir Singh, where he investigated the structure and assembly of type III TA systems from E. coli. He joined EMBL EIPOD-LinC…
Our group was well represented at this year’s RNA Society meeting in Singapore. We presented posters about the Integrator complex (Michal), U2 snRNP (Jonas) and a talk on the tri-snRNP assembly intermediate (Wojtek).It was great to see our two former PhD students, Jonas and Moritz, who keep their…
Congratulations to our newest PhD, Jonas Tholen!!! Jonas determined structures of several U2 snRNP complexes and defended his thesis at the University of Heidelberg in November this year. Well done Jonas!
Great scientific exchanges and leisure activities during our joint retreat with Eustermann group from EMBL Heidelberg. We spent 3 days together at a beautiful venue of Château de Bournel (France).Looking forward to the next one!
The summer is here!
Every year we take a day off and go skiing together. This time we went to Alpe d’Huez. Beautiful mountains and fantastic weather, only 1.5h away from Grenoble!
Our snowshoeing trip had to be cancelled due to bad weather conditions, but at least we made it to a fondue restaurant and enjoyed some nice winter food!
Sonal Lagad is our newest lab member. She joined EMBL International PhD Programme in August to work on pre-mRNA splicing.
