Tiny structures, big questions. How do molecular structures in our genome influence aging? What can we learn when we look at biology at the nanoscale? And how do discoveries like these eventually make their way… Tiny Structures, Big Discoveries: NanoPrecMed at the TERMIS Winterschool
DNA is usually known for its classic right-handed double helix. But under certain conditions, it can adopt an alternative shape called Z-DNA. This left-handed structure is increasingly linked to gene regulation, chromatin organization, and immune… Beyond the regular double helix: Two NanoPrecMed studies reveal new roles for Z-DNA
The new year starts on a positive note: with a publication in the renowned journal Genomics, the first direct collaboration between two NanoPrecMed partner institutions goes to print. Researchers from Brno University of Technology and… First joint publication within the NanoPrecMed consortium: TU Brno and LBI Trauma publish study on G-quadruplex biology
What can our cells tell us, and how can we decode their language for the medicine of tomorrow? This was the guiding question of Conny Schneider’s (LBI Trauma) talk at the Vienna Planetarium, hosted as… Cellular Messages in a Bottle: NanoPrecMed at the Vienna Planetarium
When scientists talk about the genetic code, we usually mean the famous process where DNA is “translated” into proteins, the molecular machines of life. But what if that’s only half the story? A new study… Cracking the Proteomic Code: Can Our Genes Also Tell Proteins How to Fold?
We are proud to congratulate Johannes Oesterreicher on successfully defending his PhD thesis “Engineering Extracellular Vesicles: Reducing Thrombogenicity and Targeting the Lymphatic Vasculature” at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna (BOKU). Johannes… NanoPrecMed celebrates its first PhD graduate: Johannes Oesterreicher
What if we could build surfaces with nanometer precision – using DNA as a construction material? Our NanoPrecMed Consortium partners at Johannes Kepler University (JKU) Linz have taken an exciting step in that direction. In… Building with DNA: JKU Researchers Create Functional Nanostructures on a Large Scale
In May 2025, our OpenLab Workshop series welcomed 50 participants from academia and industry to experience nanotechnology and precision medicine up close. From Vienna to Linz to Brno, each event showcased the incredible potential of… Our “OpenLab” workshop series brought together science, students and industry
Johannes Oesterreicher from LBI Trauma has been awarded the Young Investigator Award at the 19th Annual Meeting of the Austrian Cluster for Tissue Regeneration at TU Vienna. His exceptional presentation was recognized for its innovative… Breaking New Ground in Extracellular Vesicle Safety: Johannes Oesterreicher Wins Young Investigator Award
In the world of nanotechnology, where scientists explore and manipulate materials on an atomic level, few techniques offer as much precision and versatility as Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). Despite its vast potential, AFM remains a… Unlocking the Power of Atomic Force Microscopy: A Look Inside the Linz Winterschool
