We are hiring! Position open for an assistant professor in our department @HopkinsMedicine . Considering all areas in experimental and computational biophysics. Please spread the word! apply.interfolio.com/154014
We are thrilled to welcome our newest faculty member, Evan O'Brien!
Can't believe I get to say this, BUT...just started as an assistant professor @BiophysicsJHMed @HopkinsMedicine! So excited to work with all of my new colleagues in the Hopkins Biophysics community!
Excited to share that our paper on transcription repression after DNA double-strand break is online. Great collaboration with @taekjip and @yliu_UofU, spearheaded by Shuaixin He @BiophysicsJHMed @BCMB_JHMI cell.com/cell-reports/f…
Excited to share our recent work on the discovery, characterization, & implementation of a new opioid receptor negative allosteric modulator, out in @Nature today! nature.com/articles/s4158…
Single Molecule Bacteriology III registration deadline of July 30th is coming up soon. eventsforce.net/biochemsoc/fro… Secure your spot and submit your abstract for a talk now!
Baltimore middle schoolers learning about crystal lattices in Fun With Science Camp, an annual program run by @binwu1 in @BiophysicsJHMed .
Congratulations to Ed Twomey @cryoET on receiving a Catalyst award and to Jungsan Sohn on receiving a Discovery award to fund a collaborative project with Anthony @LeungLab and @cryoET ! These terrific awards from the Provost's office help fund new projects at @JohnsHopkins.
It's always such a pleasure to send (positive) decision letters to Hopkins faculty who are awarded a Catalyst or Discovery award. This year, Hopkins invests millions of dollars on: 35 Catalyst awardees: research.jhu.edu/major-initiati… 44 Discovery awards: research.jhu.edu/major-initiati…
Great collaborative effort between Ed Twomey @cryoET in @BiophysicsJHMed and Rick Huganir @rhuganir in @HopkinsNeuro .
Using #cryoEM, scientists @cryoET, @rhuganir and colleagues have determined how a widely-used #epilepsy drug works. The findings could eventually help with designing new drugs that target #brain cells’ AMPA receptors. bit.ly/3VkKEIc
Congratulations @ChangLiu_jhmi !
Congratulations to @ChangLiu_jhmi on being named a Searle Scholar! searlescholars.org/2024/05/23/sch…
Very excited to share that our paper about Inducible RNA decay and P-Body is published on @natcomms. This work was spearheaded by @LABlake93 @BiophysicsJHMed in collaboration with @InoueLabJHMI and @yliu_UofU. nature.com/articles/s4146…
The members of the Department of Biophysics and Biophysical Chemistry and our graduate students in the Program in Molecular Biophysics @JHU_Mol_Biophys would also love to chat with you about our favorite subject!
We want to discuss molecular biophysics and biochemistry.
We shows that FtsZ treadmilling acts both as a template to corral cell wall enzymes into close contacts for priming and as a conveyor to homologize the septal distribution of cell wall synthesis for even septum constriction. Great collaborations w/t @jiexiao_lab & D.S. Weiss.

Congratulations to newly minted Ph.D., Dr. Chad Hicks @HicksChadW !! 🥂 Terrific thesis seminar on beautiful work! I'm very proud of you.
@binwu1 #BPS2024 two single molecule labs having a fest at Ken Seafood, after so much hard work!
New and Notable! Excellent talk by @cryoET at the BPS Meeting 2024! Very proud of you, Ed!
Congrats to our own PMB graduates students @JHU_Mol_Biophys Martin Yepes and Taylor Delvin @KarenFlemingPhD for winning the #BPS2024 Student Research Achievement Award!
Ana de la Cruz @anadlc13 from Wu lab @BiophysicsJHMed is presenting in BPS2024 meeting in Philly.
Strong showing by our faculty at the Biophysical Society meeting! #BPS2004
@JHU_Mol_Biophys @KarenFlemingPhD @binwu1 @cryoET Recruiting the next generation of biophysicists for our graduate program in molecular biophysics! #BPS2024
We are very proud of Twomey lab @cryoET student @alejandraaaaa_r !
Huge congratulations to Alejandra for her achievements and for highlighting the challenges that PhD mothers face!
