Our post-doc, Dr. Douglas Walker Douglas Walker, just delivered a seminar to his undergraduate alma mater in which he discussed recent research and encouraged undergraduates to believe in themselves and their potential for continuing their education with graduate school!

There was little online material to learn bioinformatics 10 years ago when I started. I curated ten resources to learn bioinformatics for FREE 🧵👇

Postdoc Aidan presented a poster at Biophysical Society last week on his work entitled “Structural Determinants of the versatile functions of RNA complexes in the SARS-CoV-2 Nucleocapsid Protein” We’re happy to have you back home and safe after those travel delays!

Our graduate student Jesse Howe presented a poster on his work at Biophysical Society entitled “LC8 regulates the oligomerization of 53BP1 through bridging of 53BP1 trimers” We’re glad you got back safe despite the weather delays!

Congratulations to Dr. Douglas Walker and all involved in this new work where we highlight the importance of both long and short linkers! Douglas Walker Kayla A. Jara-Weber, PhD amber

Exciting advances as we get closer to understanding LC8 multitalented binding! Congratulations again to all involved

Our Graduate student Hannah Stuwe got back from ENC this week! We’re excited to say she had a really good time! Bonus points: People really liked her poster, Love to hear it!!

Our work successfully applying Bayesian inference to ITC data of multitalented binding has been published in PLOS Comp Biol !! Congratulations to our recent grad student and post doc Aidan as well as co-authors August and Dan Zuckerman!

We’re so pleased and excited to welcome our newest graduate student Mukhtar Idris to the lab!! We’re looking forward to the amazing science you’ll do while you’re here! Welcome to the group!

We are excited to offer this special symposium on Women Leaders in STEM, featuring some amazing speakers. All genders and career levels are welcome! See you on Dec. 13th at noon in the Linus Pauling Science Center 125!

The Barbar lab is looking to hire a new postdoc! If you’re interested in intrinsic disorder, protein binding, biophysical techniques, or Covid-19 research, you may be a good fit Be prepared to learn and do bacterial expression and purification, routine biophysics, and lots of NMR

Very happy to have this research published in JBC! This publication represents a tremendous amount of work from Graduate student Hannah Stuwe and we’re very proud of her efforts and success!

Catch our own Douglas Walker presenting at OSU’s AI Week tomorrow! He’ll be giving a flash talk on using AlphaFold for protein structure predictions, followed by a poster on predicting LC8 sites. Excited to see this great work in action! #AlphaFold #AIWeek #ProteinStructure #LC8

👏 Huge congrats to Douglas Walker on the publication of this exciting new work! Using #AlphaFold to predict LC8 binding—and even estimate affinity—a major step toward functional interpretation of AI structure prediction. Check it out! #StructuralBiology #SLiMs #IDPs #AlphaFold
