The path to condensates: Cliff Brangwynne and Mike Rosen share their stories
The 19th Annual Wiley Prize in Biomedical Sciences celebrated a breakthrough in cell biology: how membrane-less cellular compartments are formed.
Breakthrough Prize goes to Tony and Cliff!
Tony Hyman and Cliff Brangwynne win the world's largest science prize (unofficially dubbed the "Oscars of Science") for discovering a new mechanism of cellular organization.
Taa-taa ta-ta-ta-taaa! Tony in the "Tagesschau"
Germany's biggest news show. Have a look at the clip in German.
The Körber European Science Prize 2022 goes to Tony
We are very happy for Tony! And the whole lab is looking forward to a great celebration!
Tony got inducted to the National Academy of Sciences
NAS membership is a widely accepted mark of excellence in science and is considered one of the highest honors that a scientist can receive. Members are elected to the National Academy of Sciences in recognition of their distinguished and continuing achievements in original research.
Tony is now a Leopoldina member
The German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina elected Tony as a new member. The Leopoldina, founded in 1652, is one of the world’s oldest Science academy and fosters national and international science and advises politics and society in science related questions.
Tony receives the 2021 HFSP Nakasone Award
The 2021 HFSP Nakasone Award recognises Tony and Cliff for the discovery of a new state of biological matter, namely, liquid-liquid phase separation. Since 2009, the Hyman and Brangwynne labs have observed biomolecular condensation in various cell types and organisms and have helped to determine their functions in physiological and pathological conditions.
The National Academy of Sciences elected new members...
...and we are happy that Tony got elected as well! Congratulations from the whole lab. The Academy has around 2400 members amd Tony will be one of only 500 international Scientist in the Academy.
Tony receives NOMIS award and is now a NOMIS distinguished scientist
Swiss-based NOMIS foundation awarded Tony and the lab $2.5 million for our project "Phase Transitions and Biological Condensates: The Molecular Sociology of Cell Organization"
Tony wins 2020 Wiley Prize in Biomolecular Sciences
Tony wins the 19th annual prize together with Clifford Brangwynne of Princeton university and Michael Rosen of the Southwestern University in Texas for their work on defining phase-separated biomolecular condensates.
Tony wins Carl Zeiss lecture award
The award to Tony comes from the German Society for Cell Biology for excellent achievements in research and was established in 1990 by the company Zeiss. Tony will lecture on September 27th in Tübingen during the fall conference of the German Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (GBM)
Congratulations to Sina and Adam for their fellowships!
Sina and Adam received both each an EMBO postdoc fellowship as well as a Marie Curie postdoc fellowship. This is a great success for both of them but as well for the lab. And yes, of course we celebrated it…
Celebrating Tony's Schleiden Medal
