Mission DNA: Accomplished! 🧬 NUCLEATE researchers from @zarnack-group.bsky.social and @koenig-lab.bsky.social hosted a group of 4th graders for 2 days of science. From extracting DNA to imaging cells via microscope, and touring the labs, we might have just met the next gen of scientists! 🧠

NAR breakthrough alert 🎉 Joint work with @mfeldbruegge.bsky.social on Rrm4. We dissect its modular RRM binding code & how domain combinations shape RNA interactions. Like finding needles in a haystack, comparative iCLIP sorts functional vs accessory sites. Work by Nina & @srimeenakshi.bsky.social

The iCLIP3 protocol was developed by Vlado Despic in a close and fun collaboration with @koenig-lab.bsky.social and @zarnack-group.bsky.social. The protocol was inspired by and successfully tested in the @embo.org #iCLIPcourse thanks to Elias Bechara, Chris Sibley and @rosario-avolio.bsky.social

Last week, our amazing PhD student Dominik Stroh represented the lab at the 8th EU–US Conference on Endogenous DNA Damage & Repair in Trondheim, Norway 🧬🇳🇴 He nailed his poster and short pitch. Great job sharing your research with the international DNA repair community! 🙌 #DNArepair #SFB1361

I am sooo excited. Starting tomorrow the next edition of the fabulous #emboiclip2 course begins. @koenig-lab.bsky.social, @zarnack-group.bsky.social, moi & Elias Bechara will present 3 improvements to the method, a semi-automated workflow for data analysis and an exciting line up of speakers. Ready?
