Our Glyco-STORM paper is officially out in the 23 Feb 2026 issue of #AdvancedScience: doi.org/10.1002/advs.... Celebrating with the cover artwork🎉. What looks gray and lifeless at first glance unfolds into complex molecular landscapes when revealed with lectin probes & super-resolution microscopy.

The gray planet symbolizes a cell that appears lifeless at first glance. Lectins, depicted as a UFO, illuminate and reveal its glycans, transforming it into a vibrant molecular landscape and highlighting the hidden complexity and biological significance of cellular nanoarchitecture.

I‘m looking for a book📚 to gift a young neurologist🩺 who recently started her career. Something warm, funny, or gripping… maybe touching on the early challenges of the job. If you have a favorite, I’d love to hear it!🩷

Curious about the minute sugar landscape within our cells?🍭Discover it in our recent article in #AdvancedScience, where we map subcellular glycosylation using super-resolution microscopy.🔬

A special week: 🎉Honored to receive the Waltrude & Friedrich Liebau Prize de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liebau-Preis for promoting interdisciplinary crystallography with my ‘Protein Art’. I never dreamed my art would find its way into the hearts of distinguished scientists.

Lectins, which are sugar-binding proteins, possess antiviral and virucidal properties. The aim is to preserve these beneficial effects while reducing their cytotoxic and mitogenic impacts. -> www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
