- Scientists from 79 countries work at our Institute, among them many from Ukraine and Russia. In reaction to the war in Ukraine, we open a special internship program for students from Ukraine: ist.ac.at/en/news/solida… #Ukraine #freedom #nowarinukraine #NoWar #ukrainianscientists
- Excited to announce that @SaricLab was tenured on a fast-track path to full #professorship! This affirms her achievements in the field of computational biological and soft matter physics and her contributions to bridging disciplines. Congratulations! 🔗 bit.ly/3Sdi62W
- The future of science awaits us: With IST Austria's funding and growth secured until 2036, our basic science research institute receives almost 3.3 billion Euro for further expansion to 150 research groups by 2036. 🤩🤩 ist.ac.at/en/institute/
- NEW PAPER ALERT🚨: As an embryo develops, biochem signaling+mechanical forces drive tissue formation. How these processes are coordinated is unclear. In their collab, @EdouardHannezo group and @HeisenbergCPLab offer imp. insights into #tissuemorphogenesis
- Prof. Rafal Klajn @rafalklajn will join @istaustria next Summer! Apply now to become part of his group to study how molecules behave in confined spaces and participate in developing a new generation of stimuli-responsive materials! bit.ly/3cd1jeh
- We proudly present #professor @sariclab, who will lead the new #researchgroup "Computational Soft & Living Matter" @ISTAustria 🔥💪. As a Biological and Soft Matter Physicist, she models self-organization at the nanoscale in living and diseased processes.
- Breakthrough Alert: New, important work from Friml Lab at @istaustria is published today in @Nature. The work clarifies much of what has remained in muddy waters in plant molecular biology, specifically a binding protein ABP1 that auxin (THE plant hormone) attaches itself to. 🧵:
- New paper out in Nature by #ISTAustria's Sixt group – how leukocytes manage to move freely through all sorts of tissue! DOI: 10.1038/s41586-020-2283-z @annereversat @nature @livuninews #TrustinMinds
- Specialized plant #cells regain stem-cell features to heal #wounds. Paper out in @CellCellPress by #ISTAustria PhD student Lukas Hörmayer, part of Jiri Friml's group, as co-first author with Petra Marhava and Saiko Yoshida, former PhD and postdoc at #ISTAustria Credit: L.Hörmayer
00:00 - How do plant cells divide while staying connected through hundreds of tiny bridges called #plasmodesmata? ISTA #postdoc Ziqiang Patrick Li and an international team of researchers mechanistically address this fundamental question. Now on the cover of @ScienceMagazine
- Congrats to ISTA´s assistant professor @EdouardHannezo on being appointed a new member of the renowned Young Academy of @oeaw. For investigating how #cells “know” how to behave in the body, his group combines #cellbiology and theoretical #physics. 👉bit.ly/3kX5OKy
- @ISTAustria Assistant Professor @XiaoqiFeng_m receives a prestigious @ERC_Research Consolidator Grant for the project MagicSpore. Huge congratulations! Read more ➡️ bit.ly/3SWAaiv #ERCCoG
- We're happy to announce that our researchers Johannes Fink @fink_johannes and Martin Loose @nartimsoole got #TENURE! 🚀 Congrats 💪 BTW, every #ISTAustria Asst. Prof. is on a tenure-track, after 6 years of research they can then get a permanent position 💡 bit.ly/39VC4IO
