👏Kudos to Eline Bernaert, winner of the FEBS Open Bio Poster Prize at “Crosstalk between the ECM & proteases from destruction to regeneration” FEBS Advanced Course in Rehovot presenting "Macrophages shift subcellular metalloprotease activity depending on their activation state"
Congratulations to Eline for winning the poster prize at the ECM and protease meeting in Israel @WeizmannScience! A proud supervisor moment for me! 🥳🤩

It's International Day of Women and Girls in Science! A while ago our society created this amazing #namecloud to celebrate all the #awesome women of #ECMatrix, and this year we're doing something BIGGER!
Just a teaser now, but soon...

We don’t often put small molecules on the cover of @ScienceMagazine but the paxlovid development story (handled with inspiring acumen by @ValdaVinson) is medchem at its sterling best. Congrats and thanks to the whole Pfizer team on their exceptional work! science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…
🥳Celebrating the acceptance of my review manuscript covering the topic of my FWO postdoc project!
