Very proud of Bader Rayan for leading this work uncovering RNA as a regulator of peptide assembly and phase behavior, reshaping the bioactivity of virulent amyloids and host-defense peptides at the interface of bacterial virulence and innate immunity.

🎉 Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science 🔬
Some of our group leaders shared insights into what they love most about their jobs in science. ❤️
CSSB supports women and girls in science through initiatives like Girls‘ and Boys‘ Day.

My colleagues have put together a nice book chapter on amyloid polymorphism. Have a look! 🧪🧬🧶

Had a lab outing to the happiest place #MiniaturWunderland while our institute is shut down for construction updates. When your love for tiny things stretches beyond amyloids ♥️🧬🚂
📣Join us on December 9 for the Academia-Industry Matchmaking Workshop, focused on innovative solutions for challenges in the Life Sciences.

Using a combination of X-ray crystallography and cryo-EM, a new study from @landaulabcssb.bsky.social shows that amyloids,form different structures that could be useful as a natural mechanism of immune protection.

On Wednesday afternoon, students who are part of DESY's ELB-Akademie programme visited CSSB. The students learned about our molecular infection research and visited the @landaulabcssb.bsky.social and our ALFM and cryo-EM facilities.

We are hosting another “academia meets industry” workshop this December 9th (Tue) from 16:00-20:00 at CSSB, DESY. This is a great opportunity to connect with members of industry for translational projects or future job opportunities. Registration details will follow in the near future.
Save the date for another exciting "academia meets industry" event!

Awesome experience at the CCPEM icknield workshop2025 - the double espresso - doppio is an excellent platform - a wrapper for multiple independent program tools to play with cryoEM data.

I’m thrilled to share my latest published manuscript, which summarizes my work in the exciting fields of structural biology and amyloid research. A huge thank you to @meytallandau.bsky.social and the team at @landaulabcssb.bsky.social for their shared efforts

We had the pleasure of hosting Said Azaizah, Shay Sosnovsky, and Ella Zinger for a short stay at @cssbhamburg.bsky.social
It was a joy to see your curiosity, enthusiasm, and smiles brighten up the lab. Thanks Alex, @hiijanina.bsky.social and the rest of @landaulabcssb.bsky.social for mentoring!
With an amazing collection of posters highlighting the enthusiasm to amyloid fibrils, the first session for Functional amyloid meeting was extremely successful.
Hope there are many more collaborations.

Ashwani Thakur
Ashwani Thakur presents his talk
It was great to have Prof Ashwani Thakur, from IIT Kanpur, present his talk about #amyloid protein deposits in human disease and in plants (where they are ‘functional’). From #polyQ to plant seeds!
Catch him at the amyloid meeting in Hamburg. @landaulabcssb.bsky.social @cssbhamburg.bsky.social

When you see amyloid fibrils at random places
Well instead of pathogenic this was definitely functional ! ;p
