Model system for biofilms studied at the BESSY II

Bacterial biofilms can thrive on almost all types of surfaces: We find them on rocks and plants, on teeth and mucous membranes, but also on contact lenses, medical implants or catheters, in the hoses of the dairy industry or drinking water pipes, where they can pose a serious threat to human health.

High-speed cell sorter rapidly isolates and quantifies cells with complex cellular phenotypes

Isolating individual cells with complex phenotypes – which is key to understanding how these cells function, including to inform disease – is a technological challenge. Now, overcoming this hurdle, researchers present a high-speed cell sorter that uses fluorescence imaging to enable genome-scale studies of complex phenotypes.

Scientists discover new Senp5S protein with crucial role in brain development

Understanding how the brain develops is crucial to formulating treatments and management protocols for a variety of developmental disorders, as well as degenerative neurological diseases. Right from the embryonic stage, brain development is facilitated by the differentiation of neurons (brain cells).
