We are very honored to have received funding from the Dr. Hertha und Helmut Schmauser-Stiftung to develop our projects on bacterial EVs lipidomics!

The BIDlab is 1 year old! 🎂🙏🏻👩🏻‍🔬🎉🥳👯On Oct 1st 2024 we started this crazy journey: 1 junior group leader, 1 PhD student, a small office and a tiny budget. Ups&downs and a lot of hard work later, we have enlarged the group, got funding in, have 1 accepted paper and 1 under revision, went to 5 conferences, integrated into the local research community and we're still enjoying the journey 🥂🍸🍹 it is very draining and frustrating at times (a lot of times), but we'll keep moving 🙌🏻A huge Thank you to everyone that supported us along the way and specially to Miriana for making the lab run, without her this journey would not be possible!🙏🏻

The BIDlab participated in the annual German Society of Extracellular Vesicles meeting in Essen. We presented our work in the format of a talk, poster and flash talk! Got to see EVs on all kinds of applications and fields.
