We said goodbye to our VBC Summer School 2025 student who gained hands-on experience in our lab. Her enthusiasm and curiosity brought us much joy and energy.
Excited to see what comes next - hope we can welcome her back to the @viennabiocenter.bsky.social and the @maxperutzlabs.bsky.social

Back from our scientific retreat - three days filled with inspiring discussions, supervision exercises, and lots of laughter! While science was at the heart of it, we also took time to go on a hike and enjoy some fresh air.
A big thanks to everyone for making it such a fun and productive time!

Spring has arrived in Vienna!
We’re taking the opportunity to refresh both our workspace and our minds, starting with a spring cleaning, a nice team dinner, and looking forward to our annual retreat at Gustas Castle.
Fresh space, fresh minds!

Big congratulations to Helena on successfully defending her PhD!
As the first PhD student in our lab, we really appreciate all of Helena's hard work and effort in paving the way for our team. So proud of you!!

Farewell to @pallavideolal.bsky.social , who has been an incredible member of our lab and has made a significant contribution.
While we’re sad to see her go, we’re excited for her next adventure in @jonasries.bsky.social Lab and know she’ll continue to do amazing science.
Best of luck, Pallavi!

We had an amazing outing to Made-by-you for a ceramic painting session before the holidays! Colorful creations and great memories were made!
With this we wish everyone happy holidays from Otsuka lab! 🎄❄️
