Great day at Águilas; where we:
📘 presented the book "Hola Plancton" written and illustrated by Kristina Heldmann.
🖼️ presented the exhibition "Plankton City" lead by Annika @Guse_Lab , with microscopic observations of plankton
🧬 introduced our work on the #Magnificent8, our missing unicellular relatives.
Thanks to @Guse_Lab @DingemanseLab, Kristina, Stefan @DesiAguilas @AYUNTAGUILAS @Takatukallibres & others.

I am thrilled to share our new review on holocentric chromosomes. It was a lot of fun to write it together with Ines Drinnenberg!

This is certainly not the first cGAMP transporter, but the insight reported here might be the last missing piece to realize the full potential of STING agonists for cancer immunotherapy which started from DMXAA.
🚨New cGAMP transporter just dropped🚨
Check out the latest preprint from the lab, led by grad student Valentino implicating SLC7A1 as the dominant cGAMP transporter in T cells
