New preprint out! We cycle flavins from reduced to oxidized and back under hydrothermal conditions and investigate if the structure of flavins can influence their prebiotic function... Congrats to first authors Delfina and Oskari!

Last week my first PhD student (and first Postdoc to be) defended her thesis and passed with flying colors. Congrats, Dr. Delfina Pereira!!! What was even more beautiful than her kicking ass: her Portuguese family being there and bursting with pride for 'the first doctor of the village' ❤️
Student walking over Supervisor's cape (a Portuguese tradition)...Happy new doctor with colourful German PhD hat next to happy supervisor.

Ever wondered if there was a pre-enzymatic role of the adenine-tail shared by so many coenzymes? We have, too! So excited about this preprint, 1st-authored by the 1st PhD student brave enough to join our lab: Delfina 🤗 Good sign for her defense next week. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Last minute practice for my #AbSciCon24 talk thus Eastcoast morning/European afternoon. Sad to not meeting anyone in person (again!) but at least I got a view...
Opened Laptop with a powerpoint presentation in front of a window. Outside it is sunny, with a view on the Marburger castle up on a hill.
