Poster is up and I've tried hard to match my t-shirt with the poster title. We're in the front hall, No. 24. Visit us, there's more air than around the posters in the side hall🫠

I've started teaching Computational biochemistry for various BSc programs. For my students, protein sequence alignment is like using photo filters - let the button do the job and then enjoy the results.

Congratulations to Petr for defending his MSc thesis with distinctions! Since his 2nd year at uni, he has been intensively contributing to our group's daily life. We are looking forward to an upcoming paper on ribosomal proteins and wish him all the best in the next chapter of his life in Kearney.
