Our #ARCTECH PhD researchers visited Microbify & Univ. of Regensburg to explore anaerobic workflows, bioreactors, and multi-omics approaches for archaeal–bacterial interactions.
Science meets innovation 🚀

🎉We’re thrilled to share an update from the Online #ARCTECH PhD Meetings! The last sessions focused on two exciting themes: archaeal viruses and archaeal biofilms.
✨Thanks to all speakers and participants for driving archaeal research forward!

Recently we held our biannual ARCTECH meeting — usually in person, but online this time.
PhD researchers and PIs shared progress, results, and insights that keep the project moving forward. 🔬🤝

📍 ARTECH Midterm Meeting – Essen, Germany
Last month, the PhD candidates of #ARCTECH received hands-on training on biofilm cultivation in thermophilic #archaea at Uni Duisburg-Essen. A great week of #science, collaboration & inspiration! Thanks to all who made it happen. 🌍🔬🙌
Congrats to Ankita Banerjee from @archaellum.bsky.social's lab & #ARCTECH for winning the VAAM poster award! 🏆 She studies how Sulfolobus acidocaldarius protects itself from UV damage using pili & DNA exchange- understanding archaeal stress responses!

Why are Haloarchaea so colorful? Their pictorial hues come from carotenoid pigments like bacterioruberin & beta-carotene. These not only create stunning pink & orange tones but also protect the cells from UV & oxidative stress. Likewise, they hold exciting biotech potential! #ARCTECH #Microbiology
The S-layer is a crystalline protein coat found at the cell envelope of most #archaea, forming a hexagonal symmetry resulting in geometric pores. These self-assembling structures have exciting potential for #nanotechnology! The stunning images were provided by the Daum lab. #ARCTECH #microbiology
We, from the ArcTech project, would like to wish you a Merry Christmas and a fantastic start into 2025!🎄💫
Thank you for following us and for your support!

Exciting news! 🚀 We're launching #ARCTECH, the first EU-funded MSCA Doctoral Network focused on #archaea —a fascinating and resilient domain of life with great #biotech potential.
By addressing key gaps in archaeal research, we aim to unlock the vast potential of these #microorganisms. 🦠🔬
