Our team members Marius Welzel and Michael Schwarz have developed and released their first software for our research project: MESA (Mosla Error Simulator).
MESA is a web application for the assessment of DNA fragments based on various limitations.
The software is open access for everyone.
On 16 January we had a visit from Maya Gradenwitz from the LOEWE office in Wiesbaden, who handed over the certificate for the promotion of the MOSLA research project.
In mid-December, Georges Hattab came to hold a dual role between MOSLA junior PI and head of the bioinformatics department at the UMR. And let me tell this, he is actually pretty excited about it.
Why MOSLA, you wonder? The interdisciplinarity, the creative space it offers as well as pushing the boundaries.
Read about his work, passions and the creative mind he is.
Sleeping Beauty (also known as Dornröschen) has made her way into our project and made herself rather indispensable. How did it happen and what exactly is she doing there, you wonder? Read about it in the recent issue of the ProLOEWE News.
Our Principal Investigator Stefanie Dehnen, who works in the Department of Chemistry, will become Vice President of the German Chemical Society (GDCh) on January 1, 2020.
In her new position as Vice President of the GDCh, she seeks to promote a more attractive public image of the subject and even better professional and structural networking nationally and internationally, also with regard to young scientists.
On October 15th, we’ll have Prof. Dr. Luis Ceze from the University of Washington and Dr. Karin Strauss from Microsoft. They will give a talk on the topic “DNA Data Storage”. This talk is a closed event for MOSLA team members only. Please see this post for further details.
We got it from ProLOEWE some time ago and since then we present it on our homepage: The MOSLA Flyer. To give him his well-deserved tribute, we introduce him in more detail in this article. Of course he is also linked for download too.
As an association of all research initiatives, ProLOEWE connects its various projects. One of the main aims of the ProLOEWE network is to create efficient access to research.
To ensure that everything important to our research can also be found via ProLOEWE, we are now listed on the website with our own project page.
Stefanie Dehnen was recently elected to the European Academy of Sciences and thus honoured as one of the brightest European scientists who perform cutting edge research.
On 04.07. Prof. Caroline Friedel from the LMU Munich visits the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science.
Her bioinformatic lecture is titled: “Deciphering the interplay between virus-induced read-through transcription, RNA decay and loss of transcription in HSV-1 lytic infection”.
This will be followed by a general discussion. Moreover, personal questions about Women in Science will be answered in a talk.
