Two new postdocs joined the group
/We are excited to announce that Cathelijne ter Burg and Oliver Paulin joined the group as postdocs last week!
Read MoreMultiple new people in the group
/We’re excited to announce that five people have joined the group in the last months. This is by far the largest strengthening of our group since we started almost five years ago.
Read MoreAjinkya defended his Ph.D.
/Ajinkya defended his Ph.D. today and thus became the second student to graduate in our group! He gave an extremely clear talk and answered all questions by the committee. His work on “Effective simulations of interacting droplets” describes a novel method to simulate active droplets that interact with each other. His work will form the basis of future extensions that we will work on in the group. In the long term, his work will thus contribute to effective simulations of biomolecular condensates in complex situations, like those in cells. Congratulations, Ajinkya!
Jan defended his Ph.D.
/Jan defended his Ph.D. this week with flying colors! He gave a brilliant talk and mastered the following discussion to earn his doctorate. His work on “Chemical Reactions as Control Mechanisms for Biomolecular Condensates” will form the basis for multiple follow-up projects in our group and hopefully also helps biologists to interpret their data on condensate regulation. Stay tuned for his thesis, which will soon be published officially and on our website.
