We’re part of the Long Night of Research! 🎉

🔬 Step into the unseen! Explore the hidden world inside cells – from genome organization to the proteins that keep them running. Isolate your own protein from cellular chaos and watch water bears come back to life! 🧫✨

With more than 2,500 stations across Austria, expect live experiments, stage shows, behind-the-scenes tours, workshops, and much more.

See you at the Vienna BioCenter on April 24! 👋

Congrats to Sumire Antonioli (Leonard lab), who defended her PhD work “A complex of MAST1 and 14-3-3h regulates Tau phosphorylation in the developing cortex”! 🎉🎓

One frame. Many voices. 👩‍🔬
Women have always been part of the scientific process and community – it’s time their contributions receive the recognition they deserve 💪

Meet Magdalena Otto, PhD student in the Leonard lab. Originally from Linz, Austria, she studied Molecular Biology and Microbiology at the University of Graz and came to the Perutz in November 2023, where she investigates how the kinase PERK signals across space and time in cellular stress responses ✨

🎥 From research to Scientific American! ✨ In this #SuccessStory, Victoria Helm (Juffmann lab) shares how her article on the Terrell-Penrose effect came to life – from tackling decades-old software to discovering her passion for science journalism.
