🚀 Highlights from Our Second Lab Symposium

Post by Irem Erkosan

Exciting changes at the Hyman Lab! Instead of weekly meetings, we’ve launched a full-day symposium. On February 21st, we gathered at the MPI Galeria for our second lab symposium. —a deep dive into science, collaboration, and fresh ideas.

We got our own Hyman Lab notebook—because great science deserves great stationery! 📒😆

After some key lab updates (lab retreat, grants, and papers), we jumped into inspiring talks from: 🔬 Dr. Lars Hubatsch (Postdoc), Koichiro Takenaka (PhD), Dr. Isaac Wong (Postdoc, Guest Scientist), Dr. Anupa Majumdar (Postdoc)

Exciting new findings were presented by Koichiro

Lars helped us to follow his fancy Condensate diffusion equations #Nabla #Maths101

From phase separation to centrosomes, their work sparked exciting discussions and future ideas. These gatherings aren’t just about research; they’re about connecting, collaborating, and inspiring.

FYI: To keep discussions buzzing, we also run a weekly journal club debating two papers.
