Dear readers,
Hopefully, you have been able to escape the pretty average German summer for a bit during the past months. The need for sun is something we share in common with diatoms that are extra light so that they do not sink too deeply into the water and do not lose sight of the sun. In our founders portrait you will learn more about the algae and what else makes them special. Furthermore, we explore what role humans play for technological advance. And did you know that about the potential bacteriophages have for fighting bacterial infections?
We hope you enjoy reading and browsing through our latest news and wish you a pleasant start into September.
