  Wel­come

  We wel­come new PhD stu­dents in the Obleser lab: Andre­ja Sta­j­duhar and Max Schulz.

  New papers in autumn 2023:

  Twen­ty-twen­tythree has prob­a­bly not been our most pro­lif­ic year in terms of putting out new research find­ings, which in part is an inter­est­ing delayed con­se­quence of the lab close-down/s­low-down in the pan­dem­ic years. But … … here we are in autumn 2023 with no less than three fresh find­ings and perspectives: First, grad­u­ate trainee Frauke Kraus […]
