Welcome Aliki!
We are happy to welcome Aliki Karafotia as a new M.Sc. student to our lab. Welcome!
New preprint!
We are excited to share our new preprint on bioRxiv! In this study, we identify a new intermediate in WCF to HG transition and show that 1H R1ρ can be used even when NOE’s are present. Read more: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.10.03.677141v1
Welcome Rosalie!
We are happy to welcome Rosalie to our lab as a new research assistant!
Welcome Jayanti!
We’re welcoming our new postdoctoral researcher Dr. Jayanti Vaishnav who is joining us to work on ribosome dyamics and in-cell NMR.
Congratulations Katja and the whole lab!
Katja Petzold has been awarded the 2025 Eric K. Fernström Swedish Prize for her and the whole lab’s contribution to fundamental knowledge and understanding of structural biology and the dynamics of RNA at the molecular level. Congratulations!

Welcome Zineb and Riccardo!
We are happy to welcome two new M.Sc. students to our lab: Zineb from Goethe University (Frankfurt, Germany) and Riccardo from Uppsala University. Welcome!
New preprint available!
We are excited to share our new preprint on ChemRxiv! In this study, we introduce a method to boost the sensitivity of RNA NMR by attaching a special spin label (AsymPol) directly to RNA. This enables selective signal enhancement, opening possibilities for studying RNA structure and function even at very low concentrations.

Welcome Harish!
We’re welcoming our new postdoctoral researcher Dr. Balasubramanian Harish who is joining us to work on microRNA targeting and RNA structural probing.
Congrats David!
Congratulations to David for having his publication on a novel approach for mapping microRNA pairing accepted in Nucleic Acids Research (NAR)
