Big career announcement!! A few weeks ago I was offered an interview and site visit for a tenure-track Professor of Microbiology position at a dream location. But - I declined! Here is why ... (TLDR: enthusiastically saying "No, thank you" to academia) #MicroSky 1/8

Who knows how to do pooled SD in GraphPad Prism? I.e. if you have a e.g. 3 biological replicates with each 3 technical replicates and want to display an overall mean SEM for the data?

Finally online at @eLife - this has taken longer than I would have liked, but good things come to those who wait, they say. And the paper is definitely better than what we first submitted, so thanks to constructive editors and reviewers! elifesciences.org/articles/90400

📢 1.55 is now available. It includes: • Bugfixes, and • Performance improvements That's it, that's the update. The performance improvements should reduce startup time a bit. We think we can shave a few more seconds off in future updates as well.

I completely agree. Proofs represent an important last check for mistakes that have been overlooked so far. 3-4 working days should be minimum.

Don’t underestimate the power of encouragement in career progression. Asking PhD students why they decided to enter grad school, many say “my supervisor suggested it to me”. And more importantly, this applies to all levels of the ladder, so if you see someone who is ready for the next step, say it!

Focus in publishing and success criteria should really gradually change during an academic career: PhD - What can I publish? (own CV) Post doc - What can we publish? (focus on teamwork) Junior PI - What can you publish? (lab members) Senior PI - What can they publish (former lab members)

Exciting to be able to model structures of not only proteins, but also complexes with nucleic acids and small molecules!

Celebrated the lab 20th anniversary today at Aarhus Institute of Advanced Studies with excellent discussion about where to go in the future, team building, and Esben Lorentzen as invited speaker on complex structure prediction and synthetic protein structures.😎🍾🤗

Today is exactly 20 years ago I started my position as independent PI at @AarhusUni_int and since then, more than 60 students, postdocs, and visitors have worked with us. On Thursday, we celebrate the lab 20th anniversary with a day of science and team building at @AIAS_dk!

Hello ! I am a molecular microbiologist using structural biology to learn more about transport systems in mycobacteria. I have just joined Newcastle University to start my own group as NUAcT Fellow. #NewPI

If you missed our institute's inauguration and the artwork by @MuteState on the Central Dogma, there is a chance to read more here: mbg.au.dk/en/about-the... And watch it here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvVX...

The Central Dogma - a symphonic art installation.
In this work, the essence lies in the "scale" that arises in the background of the five molecules that make up the "steps" in DNA and mRNA. Guanine, Cytosine...

Our lab studies molecular microbiology using structural (X-ray/cryo-EM) and functional (in vivo) methods with a special focus on bacterial survival and defence mechanisms, toxins, anti-phage etc. Follows as well as suggestions for whom to follow are much appreciated, so we can start building this!

First post on bsky! Looking forward to what this can bring. If you have any first-timer tips for a microbiologist/structural biologist PI, I'd really appreciate them!
