🎉 The MCAA turns 11! 🎉 Since its founding in 2014, the MCAA has grown into a vibrant global network of over 22,000 members spanning 155 countries, 37 geographical Chapters, and 11 thematic Working Groups. 🌍 Read more 🧵

Looking for a postdoc position? Want to apply your biochemistry skills to answer evolutionary questions of how metalloenzymes evolve? Join my growing team in Warsaw at @IBBPAS. We're seeking a talented new postdoc to work on the superoxide dismutases. ibb.edu.pl/app/uploads/20…

I have a PhD position available in my group, starting March 2025. If you have an interest in biochemistry and would like to study an exciting class of copper proteins (aka weird Cu tubes) from bacteria, I'd love to hear from you. You should apply here: ibb.edu.pl/app/uploads/20…

Apply now, spread the word: three (3) fully funded Helmholtz research groups (assistant prof level) with attractive packages. Topics: RNA-based medicine, microbial RNA, and RNA-based infection research incl. RNA technologies. Great environment for young people. Come and join us.

Latest arricle out from @JeffMBoyd1 that we collaborated with along with @CarrollMicroLab @BoseMicroLab @EricSkaar. Showing that a non-coding RNA in S.aureus can impact metabolism and virulence! @Rutgers_NJMS @RutgersU academic.oup.com/nar/advance-ar…

For those studying metals in biology, I encourage you to join this seminar series. Diverse international speakers covering a range of topics in the field. Seminars are recorded, so the archive can be viewed at a later date - ideal for student training! cassyni.com/s/biometals

Are you interested in exploring how RNA modifications influence gene expression in bacteria? My lab invites applications for a fully-funded PostDoc position at Jena University. For details, please visit: microverse-cluster.de/files/content/…

Looking for postdoc candidate, who is interested in RNA-protein interactions, RNA localization and gene regulation. Candidates with backgrounds in biophysics (particularly single-molecule imaging), chemical biology and cell biology are all welcome to apply! Please help retweet 🙏

A DFG-funded Phd position for 3 years to study gene regulation in cyanophages is available at Cyanolab in beautiful Freiburg/Germany from Jan 2025. Please re-tweet, details here: cyanolab.de/index.php

I'm happy to share the fruit of a long labour. Many thanks to all co-authors! @GabyGonzE @jensRNA @marteyn_lab @LabRomby biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
