Happy Women in Science Day👩🔬🧫
Today we celebrate incredible women who drive scientific innovation and discovery in our lab and around the world #DiversityMatters
PS-When working with bacteria, we always look forward to coming to the lab...and finding our cultures positive 😃
What better way to celebrate this special day than by remembering this inspiring video?

What a sucessful day at the #DZL2024 annual meeting. Great discussions and plans for future collaborations. #virome #phagetherapy #lungresearch @dzlacademy – at Bad Nauheim, Germany
In our two recent papers, we demonstrate the relevance of gut phages to human health and identify their roles in conditions such as Graft-versus-host (doi.org/10.1038/s43018-023-0…), as well as non-communicable diseases like colorectal cancer (doi.org/10.1038/s41467-024-4…).
The Deng group putting their best foot forward into a two day Lab retreat! Time to celebrate all achievements, and enjoy each others company. – at Berchtesgadener Land, Bayern
It has been 6 months since we published with @tandfonline in Gut Microbes. Our paper shows how phages interact with microbial communities and lead to colorectal cancer development. You can review the article here: tandfonline.com/10.1080/1949… #AcademicChatter #bacteriophage #cancer

Fantastic paper on #gvhd just published in @NatureCancer by Eric T. Orberg @matrixat @HendrikPoeck, @deng_lab and many more @crc1371 members! Great team effort!
Researchers discovered that certain combinations of #gutbacteria protect #stemcelltransplantation patients and reduce the risk of graft versus host disease: go.tum.de/254522

We are excited to announce our latest publications that demonstrate the link between gut phages and colorectal cancer, which is exacerbated by Helicobacter pylori infection:

Kawtar Tiamani on "Studying the Transcriptional Organization and Infection Process in A. baumannii phage model using Differential RNA-Sequencing in order to discover novel phage based antibacterials" @deng_lab
We are looking for a highly motivated Ph.D. student to work on an exciting project that aims to develop targeted approaches for manipulating the human microbiome. To apply, please visit the link below: jobs.helmholtz-muenchen.de/j…
We are excited to share our recent paper published in Microbiology Spectrum. Using single-cell viral tagging, we revealed significant cell-to-cell variations in phage kinetics among highly virulent phages: journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128…
We are excited to share our recent paper published in Gut Microbes; ViroProfiler is a new pipeline for analyzing viral sequences, bringing us one step closer to standardizing viral metagenomics: tandfonline.com/doi/epdf/10.…

Last week 70 national and international participants discussed the future of translational #phage research in Germany during the first strategic DZIF meeting on this topic. A DZIF phage network was established and a roadmap for future steps drafted.

Looking forward for #IUMS2022. Medical and non-medical microbiology experts from around the world will gather for great scientific exchange. Honored to be invited to present @IUMSmicrobio - “Microbiomes and virome in the Anthropocene” 1-2:30PM
ONE day left until #IUMS2022 💙💜💙 We can't wait to see you tomorrow at the first IUMS Online Edition!
✅ Register and join us in keynote lectures by scientific leaders, bridging sessions and workshops organized by the three IUMS divisions!

These past two days were unique. Thanks to @DZIF_, interdisciplinary teams aiming at making phage therapy a treatment option against untreatable bacterial infections, were brought together. Many lessons learned and a lot of work ahead #thefutureisbright #phagefriends
Tomorrow starts the first strategic @DZIF_ meeting to promote translational research in the field of bacteriophages in Germany. Many important discussions on the agenda dzif.de/system/files/documen… #phagetherapy #AntimicrobialResistance
