Just wrapped up inspiring days of science and networking at the VAAM Workshop “Biology of Bacteria Producing Natural Products” in Berlin!
Our team’s first conference ended on a high note — 2nd prize for best poster! 🥈🥳
Thanks to the organizers @niedermeyer-lab.bsky.social for a fantastic meeting. 🙏
We are hiring! We are going to use some really, really cool new techniques to look at the chemical and spatial dynamics of how the plant micobiome takes shape and what it means. Join us! Apply online until 20th Oct here: www.microverse-cluster.de/files/conten...
Cool feature! Just hope no one tries to draw the structures from the image 😅
🚀 SIRIUS v6.3 is here!
We're excited to introduce the latest version of #SIRIUS with powerful new features to enhance small molecule identification.
⬇️ Learn more and download SIRIUS v6.3 today:

Cool approach! Congrats to the team!
I was wondering if the constant infusion of (sometimes rather highly concentrated) derivatization reagents affected sensitivity?
📣 I’m recruiting a #Postdoc to help us further our understanding on the infection strategies of our human fungal pathogen. If you’re enthusiastic about research, our interdisciplinary group @leibniz-hki.de will be a good fit for you! Please share!

Exciting postdoc opportunity for someone in the natural product field interested in using state-of-the-art robotics to automate antimicrobial peptide discovery and engineering! 🤖
#mzmine 4.7 is now available!
This release brings our most significant improvement in memory efficiency to date, unlocking new capabilities for analyzing large-scale datasets.
Join us for a live software demo at our booth today and tomorrow at 12:00/noon during #ASMS2025

🚨getphylo workshop announcement🚨
(Please share!)
Are you interested in building genome-scale phylogenies - fast? Or want to explore the evolution of gene clusters? Then getphylo might be the tool for you!
I will be running online workshops on the 26th and 27th May. 🧪💻 1/3
I agree, SIRIUS is a great tool and can be helpful for that task! You can also add your (expected) macrolide structures in SIRIUS, in case they are not in public databases yet.

The image shows natural moss growth on a stony surface. The moss cushions are various shades of green, ranging from bright light green to darker, partly brownish tones.
🌱 Mosses thrive in extreme environments. At #LeibnizHKI, Jethro Hemmann’s team uses metabolomics to decode moss-microbe interactions in hunt for bioactive #NaturalProducts.
