At the IMP we’re dedicated to the fun of finding out. Few places in the world let you dive into curiosity-driven science like we do. 📽️Watch what the IMP is all about: youtu.be/mtl5Vod652Q

Super happy to have been awarded the EMBO Postdoctoral Fellowship!!! 🤯 Again, a big big thank you to all my mentors for their feedback, and everyone for their suggestions (with a special mention to the expert evaluator and the EMBO committee for their great questions).
🥳Congratulations to our @gbventur, postdoc in the lab of @diana__pinheiro, who received an EMBO fellowship! The funding will support his research on how the timing of embryonic development is controlled. ➡️Read more: imp.ac.at/news/article/e…

Congrats to @EliasAdriaensse, whose research at @MaxPerutzLabs was published today in Nature Cell Biology. The study reveals how cells start mitophagy to maintain their fitness. Elias just started a postdoc in Tim's Clausen lab. Welcome aboard! tinyurl.com/y33nrtn2

Very promising news on the next seven-year EU budget, with a proposed substantial increase for Horizon Europe including the ERC. We are analysing the other parts of this proposal in more detail. @Vonderleyen @EZaharievaEU research-and-innovation.ec.europa.eu/news/all-resea…
*New Open-Access Long Read Resource*. We sequenced 1,019 genomes from the 1000 Genomes Project sample cohort using @nanopore. Sequencing data is available at bit.ly/4m8dlE2. @embl @HHU_de @IMPvienna @CRGenomica nature.com/articles/s4158… [1/8]
🎉Congratulations to our Andrea Pauli, Senior Group Leader at the IMP, for being elected as a member of the Academia Europaea! The honour recognises her research on the molecular mechanisms of fertilisation and early embryonic development. Read more➡️imp.ac.at/news/article/a…

🎉Congratulations to our Daniel Grabarczyk, research associate in the Clausen lab, who was awarded a prestigious FWF Principal Investigator Project Grant to support his research into the molecular mechanisms of innate immunity against viruses. Read more: imp.ac.at/news/article/f…

Congrats to Clemens Plaschka, who was selected to become a Member of the European Molecular Biology Organization (@EMBO), becoming the eighth out of 14 IMP faculty members to receive this honour. More on Clemens Plaschka and his research: imp.ac.at/news/article/c…

New Paper! How do human B cells use dynamic DNA topology during antibody maturation? Our research published in @MolecularCell reveals how somatic hypermutation (SHM) and class switch recombination (CSR) work in the context of a regulated multiway 3D chromatin hub. (1/10) 🧵
