Come to join us!! A postdoctoral researcher position is available immediately in computational and theoretical chemistry/biophysics in the chemistry department at the University of California, Riverside. The position will focus on…lnkd.in/gUg9vMc lnkd.in/g9VpV9U

This is my department - come work and study with us!

online application link is now live - please spread the word - we have a postdoc AND an RAIII position open. link here: recruiting2.ultipro.com/SAL1013SIBS/Jo…

Working towards computing kinetics for large biomolecules with independent Markov decomposition. Tim Hempel championed this work, big shoutout to the team Mauricio del Razo, Christopher Lee Rommie Amaro Bryn Taylor, PhD. So happy to have a paper with you Rommie! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We are releasing STRESS, an automated software to measure mechanical stresses in 3D multicellular systems using oil droplets or (some) gel microbeads. The software was developed by awesome postdoc Ben Gross and great graduate student Elijah R. Shelton, Ph.D.. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 🧵

i now have three positions open in my group so here is a thread for each one: 1) mitochondria and synaptic plasticity postdoc (with John Reynolds‘s lab): jobs.sciencecareers.org/job/541271/pos…

Meet Miriam Bell #ARCSScholar @RangamaniUCSD whose current projects focus on the shape-function relationship of dendritic spines, small protrusions on neurons that are centers of synaptic communication. Miriam was honored at our recent SOY Event: san-diego.arcsfoundation.org/2021-scientist… #STEMed

Very excited to share this work led by Mason and Miriam! It's been a privilege to work with and support Mason in his high school research journey. This is the best part of "teaching science as we do science"! So excited for your future, Mason.

Very careful biophysical modelling study showing how dendritic spine size and shape may modulate the plasticity rule. Spine volume-to-surface ratio turns out to be key determinant for calcium transient size and synaptic weight updates. Can be regulated via multiple mechanisms.

Excited to be an invited speaker at ASM & FEMS #WorldMicrobeForum, giving my recorded talk today at 2:40pm PST on #fermented #food in the #gut #microbiome! If you're attending the conference, come say hi during the live Q&A at 3pm. journals.asm.org/doi/full/10.11…

I'm excited to share our latest collaborative work with @RangamaniUCSD. We obtained new mechanistic insights into actin-based force production during clathrin-mediated endocytosis by integrating quantitative #cryoET results into mathematical modeling. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

My department at UPitt (biology.pitt.edu) is looking to hire two new tenure-track faculty in computational biology! Feel free to email or message the search chair ([email protected] @boylelab.bsky.social) with any questions about the search. You can apply here: tinyurl.com/2hm3efct

Well, I guess it’s time for me to comment, since all of you have been blowing up Twitter! I am absolutely blown away by the outpouring of love and good wishes- you tweeps are just amazing, and I am so lucky to have you. A thread (of course): publichealth.jhu.edu/2021/johns-hop…

Excited to finally share some of our work on the photogeneration of tryptophan radical in a very unusual protein, azurin. Thanks Christopher Lee , J J Rivera, and J E Kim! #biophysics, #photochemistry pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Tears of queer joy hearing about Carolyn Bertozzi winning the chemistry #NobelPrize & Svante Pääbo in physiology, 1st openly LGBTQ+ STEM Nobel winners! Shouldn’t matter, but in a year with so much increased hate & violence it is so important to have these visible icons. #Pride
