Thanks to all contributing to a very successful Martini workshop in gather town !!

Very happy with the Martini Workshop!

📢 Want to learn how to use different tools in #StructuralBiology?🦠 Join us on the Computational Structural Biology Tools! 🔗bit.ly/3DXbcor 🗓 21st - 22nd December 2021 🕑9 am - 6 pm WEST #biophysics #modeling #docking #haddock #autodock #moleculardynamics #mmpbsa

Coimbra will be the place to be, on the 21 and 22 of December, to hone your CompBiol skills. And the Manuel Melo Lab at ITQB NOVA will be lecturing, to cater to all your Martini coarse-graining needs!

Calls are open for the Fundación ”la Caixa” INPhINIT doctoral fellowships! Interested in a PhD in sunny Lisbon with top players in the field? Then check out our suberin modeling project, with a dash of experimental validation, co-hosted with the CristinaSilvaPereira! finder.lacaixafellowships.org/finder?positio…

Registration is open for the 3D-BioInfo-PT Introductory Workshop, Sept. 22-23 2022 at ITQB NOVA! Come get your feet wet in the field of structural computational biology. Organized by your truly and with support of @BioData_pt and @itqbunl. Enroll at 3d-bioinfo-pt.github.io/workshops/work…

A team led by #ITQBNOVA researchers Cláudio M. Soares and Diana Lousa has won a Fundación ”la Caixa” Grant to create a platform to rapidly develop and produce new biopharmaceuticals to fight emerging #viruses.👏🏆 Know more👉 itqb.unl.pt/news/itqb-nova… NOVA Oeiras Valley

Check out our preprint on some Martini 3 rough edges when modeling helical peptides in specifc dimeric or transmembrane conditions. Keeping it challenging for upcoming refinements to the force field by Siewert-Jan Marrink, PauloCTSouza and us! doi.org/10.26434/chemr…

Congrats Mariana Valério and Luís Borges-Araújo for the publication of our analysis of the SARS-CoV-2 RBD dynamics, and how it may explain some of the variants' success. Check it out 😃 frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

Karl and Fernando's work on some Martini 3 wrinkles just became full article! doi.org/10.1016/j.cple… Also, since last tweet, the lab has i) been at the Martini dev meeting in Malta 😍🍸 ii) organized the 2022 3D-Bioinfo-PT actions 💪 x.com/3dBioinfoPT/st… Exciting semester!

Manuel Melo Lab at ITQB NOVA, Siewert-Jan Marrink, Luís Borges-Araújo, I and many other collaborators are glad to announce that the final #Martini3 model of #cholesterol is ready and available here. github.com/Martini-Force-…

And after the GitHub soft opening, here's the preprint for our Martini 3 cholesterol parameterization! chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi… Big cheers, PauloCTSouza, Siewert-Jan Marrink and the many others in this amazing collaborative endeavor!

We just opened registrations and abstract submissions for the XVIII Iberian Peptide Meeting later this fall. Be sure to check the meeting's website for more info iberian-peptide-meeting.github.io/XVIII/ See you in Sesimbra!

After some improvements proposed by the reviewers, we finally have Martini 3 cholesterol model paper peer-reviewed! 🍾 Published in JCIM & JCTC Journals. Take a a look here: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

And our new Martini 3 cholesterol model is out! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10… Big shout out to PauloCTSouza and all the collaborators behind this huge effort!

Great to be a part of this effort! Congrats, CristinaSilvaPereira!

I am proud to present our work “GōMartini 3: From large conformational changes in proteins to environmental bias corrections”. Take a look in the bioRxiv here: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We're now on Bluesky! (tinyurl.com/melolab) Hope you all join soon!
