Exciting journey from bio-technological innovation at @ETH_en to a successful company: read the inspiring interview with our alumnus Marc Gitzinger, CEO of D-BSSE spinoff company @Bioversys 👇🏽
From @ETH to IPO – @Bioversys rings the bell 🔔 venturelab.swiss/From-Lab-Bench… In 2007, Marc Gitzinger joined the #VentureChallenge course at @ETH with a bold idea: tackle antibiotic resistance. Fast-forward 17 years, and BioVersys is now publicly listed on the @sixgroup Swiss…
Interview with alumnus Marc Gitzinger, CEO of the D-BSSE spinoff Bioversys, specialised on combating #antimicrobial resistance and ‘hospital infections’ > «CEO Talk» telezueri.ch/ceo-talk/ceo-t… @ETH_en #ETHspinoff
🧠 New light on human brain development: Using long-term live imaging, @TreutleinLab reveals how brain #Organoids grow and self-organize — and how the extracellular matrix shapes regional brain identity > u.ethz.ch/PjOni @Nature @ETH_en
Congratulations, Mustafa Khammash @KhammashLab , on receiving an Advanced Grant for the third time!!! Looking forward to your achievements in designing novel genetic controllers 🧬⏱️ @ETH_en #ERCAdG > u.ethz.ch/HBxAi

Antibiotic resistance needs innovative solutions resulting from strong interdisciplinary & interinstitutional collaborations, this is the great strength of NCCR AntiResist ! Thanks for visiting the D-BSSE @ETH_en and the Cleanroom Facility Basel 🦠
👋 It was a pleasure to welcome @kasparsutter from @BaselStadt and colleagues Dr. Eva Greganova and Samuel Hess to visit our labs at the @biozentrum @unibas last week to talk about our research. #TransformingAntimicrobialResearch #AMR

Huge congrats to our 2024 Graduates 🎉 and the ETH Medal and Willi Studer Prize Awardees 👏🏽 > u.ethz.ch/RqsZ4 Wishing you a bright future ✨ 🫶 Happy to hear back from you! @ETH_en @VMB_ETH

Continuing a wonderful tradition: today, the faculties gathered at the annual "D-BSSE❤️Biozentrum" meeting, to learn about the research of new group leaders on campus and to foster collaboration and innovation. Thank you @biozentrum for your visit & the fruitful exchanges!

👏🏽 Big congrats to Costanza Borrelli who studied cell-cell interactions in the Lab of Andreas Moor, and Antonio Santinha from @randall_platt Lab, inventor of a novel technology for single-cell CRISPR screening, received the 2024 @ETH_en Medals🤩 > u.ethz.ch/ZOnc3

Public Event @ETH_en and @Swiss3RCC: Animal models and their alternatives in neuroscience | The event on 21 June features engaging lectures, amongst the speakers: Barbara Treutlein, @TreutleinLab, working on brain 🧠organoids 🧬 > u.ethz.ch/gBEeC

Two groundbreaking open-access papers on integrated atlases of human #organoids are out: researchers at @Roche|'s Institute of Human Biology, @ETH_en, @HelmholtzMunich, and collaborators have built detailed atlases of #brain, #gut, and #lung organoids > u.ethz.ch/6Rjqg

🚀 Fantastic contribution to the Human Cell Atlas! Congrats to Barbara Treutlein @TreutleinLab, @GrayCampLab, Quan Xu, @fabiantheis, @HalleLennard on your Nature Genetics publication 👏🏽 @ETH_en
Integrated Organoid Atlas benchmarks new protocols, even more impressive as a Highly Variable Cohort for comparison against perturbation and disease models: nature.com/articles/s4158… Lead by @_xuquan @HalleLennard Collaboration with @fabian_theis @TreutleinLab @IHB_Research
