We had this phenomenal work come out a couple of days ago. This is one of those works in which an irrational polymer design was found to weaken the biofilm-surface interactions and clear biofilms from underwater surfaces without killing the bacteria! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…
The cover featuring our recent fragment binding study is now out @ ACS Chem Bio: pubs.acs.org/toc/acbcct/20/… Huge thanks to the talented Ivo Kabelka from @CarlssonLab for creating this beautiful cover art.
Our work on the facile synthesis of an atomically precise CdTe nanocluster has been published in @J_A_C_S. Congratulations to Sam and the team @semicluster @UFChemistry for their hard work that led to this discovery! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…
Mark your calendar for #GatorNation Giving Day! Join us on Feb 20 and make a difference for current and future @UF Chemistry students. Help us unlock a $10k gift from Rob Kincart ('72) and his wife Laurel with 100 gifts to the UF Chemistry Fund: shorturl.at/ETkL4 @UF_CLAS
We are now on @LinkedIn! If you are an alumnus of @UFChemistry, a current or future student, or just interested in hearing about our science, education, news, or outreach, please follow us! linkedin.com/school/uf-depa…
Happy holidays 🎄 from brand new members of the NarayananLab.com and Narayanan family 🧑🧑🧒! Incredible to have all these wonderful new people in my life-work continuum.

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Chemistry with one half to David Baker “for computational protein design” and the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper “for protein structure prediction.”
2024 #NobelPrize laureate in chemistry David Baker has succeeded with the almost impossible feat of building entirely new kinds of proteins. In recent years, one incredible protein creation after the other has emerged from Baker’s laboratory. They range from new nanomaterials…
Excited to share a new preprint! (1)🔬The nucleolus is the most prominent nuclear condensate, with a fascinating multilayered liquid-like structure, and is the site of ribosome biogenesis. But how does this multiphase architecture form and function? biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
How do you turn a condensate inside-out? Congrats to @sofiquinodoz & @jiang_lifei & co-authors on amazing study from our lab & @LafontaineLab + Klinge. Genomics, engineered nucleoli, & modeling RNA-controlled nucleolar architecture!! (Tweetorial soon!) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
This month, I officially started as an Assistant Professor at @UCSanDiego. I’m thrilled to join the Department of Physics @UCSDPhysics and the Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry in @UCSDPhySci. I’m especially excited to be part of the UCSD Biophysics faculty - a unique place…
