We are actively recruiting a postdoc interested in working on developing new chemical biology tools for protein interaction discovery. If interested, please email me at [email protected]! gerilab.weill.cornell.edu/team

I remember being 7 years old and watching the man who played Capt Kirk on TV. Today I got the chance to chat with the real life astronaut William Shatner and it was out of this world. Talked about organocatalysis, blue origin & carbon removal and he even said hi to Jim McCusker!

Had a fantastic weekend in Princeton celebrating Dave's Nobel! It was amazing to reconnect with so many old friends (like Tao Wang, pictured) and group alumni (>75!)- an unforgettable experience. David MacMillan MacMillan Group

Our TIMSTof Pro 2 (a cutting edge LCMS for proteomics) is now installed and fully operational! Here is a picture of Alan, the Bruker rep, manuvering it with help from Maxim and Zahir. It extends vertically into the ceiling, as all awesome instruments should.

New R21 on identifying novel drug targets is getting funded! Excited to be working with Jacob Geri here at Weill Cornell Medicine

Me: Can I have a #structure of my #protein of interest? Alphafold: We have it in the #database, no need to make new one. Structure in the database:

Two PhD students and one postdoctoral scholar joined the lab this summer! Welcome Noah, Charlie, and Peter! Charles Warren NoahYardeny @94peter

Amazing to see a plan come together! This paper unambiguously shows the tight labeling radius of antibody-targeted µMap labeling compared to other methods, and how reactive intermediate lifetime can be exploited to tune proximity labeling radii. pnas.org/doi/abs/10.107…

Excited to share our latest work out today in J. Am. Chem. Soc. using µMap to identify new SARS-CoV-2 entry receptors on human cells. Great collaboration between Jacob Geri, MacMillan Group and the Alexander Ploss, and hugely enabling for discovering new COVID biology.. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

I was really impressed by the recent crop of text prompt to image AI tools and wanted to see how they would depict molecular interactions. Needless to say, I'll stick with Illustrator for now. Prompt: "MDM2 interacting with a peptide" Result (DALL-E 2):

Excited to announce that our group's work on chemical biology technology at Weill Cornell Medicine at is now funded via a NIGMS R35 MIRA grant!

Happy photocatalyst Friday from the 16th floor of Weill Cornell Medicine

The Geri Lab is recruiting postdoctoral scholars to develop photocatalytic proximity labeling and proteomics technologies. Chemical biologists and chemists who want to learn chemical biology are welcome! gerilab.weill.cornell.edu/team The view from our recently expanded NYC lab space:
