Podcast about research on sex-specific differences in biology and medicine
Sandra and her colleague Frank Kirchhoff were interviewed by the Medical Association Saarland - topic: sex-specific differences in biology and medicine. Link
New students
Welcome to our Master students Marie and Franziska, our student assistant Vanessa, and our intern student Raphael (U. Strasbourg)!
Cell Physics 2023 Conference (October 2023 in Saarbruecken)
Join the International Meeting of the German Society for Cell Biology (DGZ), this year jointly organized by the SFB 1027 and the DGZ. The conference "Cell Physics 2023" will take place from October 10 to 13 on the Saarbrücken campus. Registration deadline: September 10, 2023. More information here: www.cell-physics.uni-saarland.de
Welcome Evelyn!
We are happy that Evelyn joined our team as new technician to support us with her tissue expertise.
New paper on patterning of resident cell types in murine tail skin
Susi's beautiful data out in Development: Lrig1 and Wnt dependent niches dictate segregation of resident immune cells and melanocytes in murine tail epidermis
Welcome Carole!
Dr. Carole Luthold joined our team to work on our SFB 1027 project - great to have you here!
Collaborative paper on Par3A and Par3B in kidney
Happy to see the work by our collaborators Sybille Köhler and Paul Brinkkötter out, demonstrating that combined loss of Par3A and Par3B in mouse podocytes causes severe kidney disease, whereas single loss of either Par3 isoform is tolerated. Congrats, Sybille and Paul & Co., also for some meticulous rescue assays in Drosophila nephrocytes, and thanks for this great collaboration.

new technician
Nina joined us as technician to support our new lab in Homburg (slowly and with lots of restrictions we have opened the lab, finally :) )
new preprint
Sina's work just out: Polarity proteins promote skin pigmentation through melanin synthesis pathway. Check out in bioRxiv: https://bit.ly/2Kp4G08
new PhD student
Ann-Kathrin Burkhart joined us as new PhD student. Due to Corona situation, she started off with home office, but we hope to all come together very soon at the Homburg campus. Welcome Ann-Kathrin!
new postdoc
