Haven't posted for years, so here's two updates:
1. This happy scientist defended. Thanks to @EwaldLab and my fantastic colleagues!
2. From now on, I'll only cross-post here. See link in bio for more.
News from our lab!
We show that yeast's cell cycle entry is not a switch-like commitment, but a reversible multi-step process.
Big thanks to my joint first author Deniz Irvali and @EwaldLabembopress.org/doi/full/10.15…
Can yeast cells change their mind after having committed to cell division in G1?
Yes according to Deniz Irvali, @FabianPSch et al @EwaldLab@uni_tue – they re-import the “Start” repressor Whi5 under nutrient starvation!

Its official: The President's office has confirmed the positive vote of the tenure committee. Expecting to be Full Professor of Molecular Cell Biology in April 2023. 😀Thanks to my amazing team, shown at our recent lab retreat!
We wrote a guide about live-cell imaging!
You may find it helpful for building or optimizing your microscopy setup, as well as adapting it to yeast.

Yeast doesn't behave as you may think - and a new approach towards the elusive Swe1 helps us understand why.
