🔬Our first CeMM #PhDDay yesterday was a success! From posters & pitches to inspiring keynote talks, the day was filled with scientific exchange & constructive feedback. Huge thanks to our postdoc reps for organizing such an insightful event for our #PhD community! 👩‍🔬👨🏿‍🔬

🔬 Our research technicians stepped away from the bench for CeMM's RT Retreat (10–11 June): 2 days of sharing expertise, tackling challenges & strengthening connections across labs at CeMM, @stanna-ccri.bsky.social & @aithyra.bsky.social. Thank you all who joined & our RT reps for organizing!👏

Final #FrontRowScience highlight from our #CeMMResearchReport2025: CeMM's Admin & Scientific Support teams, the people behind the science! At CeMM, research excellence relies on the close collaboration between support & experimental teams. Advancing medicine is a true team effort! 👉 bit.ly/4ecuLwP

🧬 Inspiring #CeMMinar with Ralph DeBerardinis (@rjdlab.bsky.social) on metabolic outliers in human disease, sharing insights into how metabolic pathways drive disease using metabolomics & isotope tracing. Thanks to Ralph & hosts Stefan Kubicek, @dseruggia.bsky.social & @floriangrebien.bsky.social!

🧬As Austria’s first technology platform dedicated to NGS in biomedicine, the BSF supports projects from study design to sequencing & bioinformatics analysis. The team has further expanded its single-cell portfolio & adopted the latest GEM-X assays. 👉 bit.ly/4dM4tCH

🔬 The MPD combines proteomics, metabolomics & chemical screening technologies to discover & characterize bioactive molecules. They now provide access to >100,000 compounds plus new “direct-to-biology” approaches for faster discovery. 👉 bit.ly/4x6sawY

The call for the CeMM Starting PI positions with a research focus of Pain&Aging has been closed. We have received 100 applications and thank all candidates for their interest, the time, and effort they put into the applications! It was a pleasure to meet some of the candidates in Vienna. 🙏 🫶

🔬 “Loss of the anti-inflammatory function of regulatory T cells is caused by a malfunction of the cellular metabolism,” explained Stary at 𝘗𝘢𝘭𝘢𝘪𝘴 𝘓𝘰𝘣𝘬𝘰𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘻. The Stary group uncovered a potential new avenue for treating chronic skin inflammation by restoring this function. 👉 bit.ly/4dGeik7

🩺 “The bench-to-bedside principle is something that we live every day,” said Reiberger at the 𝘉𝘶𝘳𝘨𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘳. Last year, his group showed that PH's lingering low-grade inflammation may prevent liver blood vessel relaxation, highlighting inflammation as a promising therapeutic target. 👉 bit.ly/3Q43NPQ

🧬In 2025, @boztugk.bsky.social's group introduced a method that predicts treatment responses as soon as acute myeloid leukemia is diagnosed. "This is something that academic medicine has to take care of," said Boztug at the 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘯 𝘥𝘦𝘳 𝘑𝘰𝘴𝘦𝘧𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘥𝘵. 👉 bit.ly/4tUUNKG

🎓Congrats to Miquel Muñoz from @georgwinter.bsky.social's group (@aithyra.bsky.social) who has successfully defended his PhD thesis entitled "Bridging chemical biology and functional genomics: high-throughput mechanistic dissection of small molecule degraders." We're very proud, well done!👏🏻🎉#phdlife

⚗️During their discussion at the 𝘝𝘰𝘭𝘬𝘴𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘳, Adjunct PI Miriam Unterlass said “Classical synthesis of organic materials is often toxic.” The @unterlasslab.bsky.social pioneers hydrothermal synthesis, using hot water instead of toxic solvents for more sustainable organic chemistry. 👉 bit.ly/4uhOl1s
