Professor and Director, Biophysics and Biophysical Chemistry @BiophysJHMed @HopkinsMedicine, structural biologist, fan of the active voice. I post preprints.
It’s been a fantastic conference- many thanks to organizers Wei Yang and David Lilley. #Nucleic25
We were incredibly lucky to welcome @CWolberger to the stage this afternoon at #Nucleic25! Thank you for an inspiring and insightful talk. 👏🧬 #FusionDNA
Thank you @JohnsHopkins for featuring our work and @edbites for this piece explaining the importance of protein folding/misfolding for understanding the basis of cognitive decline. A fun one to share with your science enthusiast friends. hub.jhu.edu/magazine/2025/…
Newly elected #NASmember Ann Hochschild of @harvardmed focuses on transcription regulation and the biology of prions, primarily in E. coli, with an emphasis on genetic approaches. Read more: ow.ly/9EK150UO4n1
Our post-bac program will give you a year of research training after you finish undergraduate. Incredible biomolecular structure and design projects (antibody engineering, deep learning algorithms...), great mentoring and support in applying for grad schools and fellowships.
Join us to research protein design! After that Nobel Prize, the field is wide open for impactful applications in medicine, sustainability, and technology. It's an incredible summer.
The Rosetta Commons Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program accepts applications until February 1, 2025. Apply now and participate in research using the Rosetta Commons software. Learn more here: rosettacommons.org/education/reu/ #REU #RosettaCommons #Undergraduateprogram
Last chance to apply to the Cold Spring Harbor #cryoem course this March (application deadline is Jan 15th)! Learn all about sample prep, microscope operation, and image processing at this fun 2-week course @kollmanlab @Jen_Cash_11 @cshlcourses meetings.cshl.edu/courses.aspx?c…
Update on #Nucleic25 Conference! 🚨 🗓️ EB & TS Deadline: 23rd January 2025. DON'T MISS OUT! 🌟Grants are still available for students, postdocs & junior investigators! 🌟 For more details, visit bit.ly/4h0ZWeg or email Felicity at 📧 [email protected]
Excited to relocate my lab to @JohnsHopkins and join as a @JHU_BDPs! We are actively recruiting at all levels—seeking talented scientists passionate about cracking the codes of the epigenome. Let’s push the frontiers of transcription, DNA repair, and structural biology together!
Welcome Yuan He, who joins @JohnsHopkins as the Bloomberg Distinguished Professor of Structural Biophysics and Chromatin Biology. A celebrated biologist, He is joining the @JHUEpigenome BDP cluster. (1/4) hub.jhu.edu/2025/01/02/yua…

Happy to share another preprint from our lab showing that the Setdb1 and Atf7IP form a heterotrimer to silence retrotransposons. tinyurl.com/4nrajbxj
Congratulations, Steve Baylin and Andy Feinberg! Also congrats to Peter Jones @VAInstitute , who shares the Harvey prize with them.

🚨 Exciting News! 🚨 The #Nucleic25 Programme is now live! 🎉 Short talk slots are still available. To be considered, simply register for the conference and upload your abstract before the deadline 23rd January 2025. Don't miss out on this fantastic opportunity – submit today! 🌟…
The #AlphaFold 3 model code and weights are now available for academic use. We @GoogleDeepMind are excited to see how the research community continues to use AlphaFold to address open questions in biology and new lines of research. github.com/google-deepmin…
We love the excitement & results from the community on AlphaFold 3 and are doubling the AF Server daily job limit to 20. Happy to also share that we're working on releasing the AF3 model (incl weights) for academic use, which doesn’t depend on our research infra, within 6 months.
Would be great if someone could share some cat videos right now.
In the most recent episode we talked with Carl Wu from John's Hopkins University about his work on nucleosome remodeling, histone variants, and the role of single-molecule imaging in gene regulation. #podcast #epigenetics Listen here: activemotif.com/podcasts-carl-…
Molecular dynamics simulations in mixed reality! With @labriataphd and @lucien_krapp we’re scaling our multi-user WebXR platform to enable immersive molecular simulations, fully based on web technologies. Stay tuned, lots of cool stuff coming soon! @threejs #WebXR #Quest3
Congratulations to our longtime collaborator, @AshrafBrik ! 🎉
Congratulations to Academy member Prof. Ashraf Brik from the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, on being selected for the prestigious 2025 Vincent du Vigneaud Award! This distinguished recognition celebrates outstanding mid-career achievements in peptide research - the…
