Excited to receive NOA on #R21 @NIAIDFunding to start a #COVID #vaccine project 🎉🍾🥳 Massive thanks to my techs @sbuckley2493+Lucas Kerstetter for remotely compiling all the #CoV2 literature (!!!) into bite-sized pieces during lockdown - actual footage of me #grantwriting 👇 😂

Excited to see our manuscript out in Science Magazine today! The plasmid for HexaPro is available at Addgene (addgene.org/154754/). Great collaboration with Ilya Finkelstein and Jennifer Maynard, led by postdoctoral fellow Ching-Lin Hsieh.

Our first #newlab review is out! 1st first-author paper for Lucas Kerstetter, with @sbuckley2493 & Dr. Carly Bliss 🥼🦠🔬 "Adenoviral Vectors as Vaccines for Emerging Avian Influenza Viruses" #H5N8 #universalflu #vaccineswork pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33633727/

Have you ever wanted to design protein binders with ease? Today we present 𝑩𝒊𝒏𝒅𝑪𝒓𝒂𝒇𝒕, a user-friendly and open-source pipeline that allows to anyone to create protein binders de novo with high experimental success rates. Bruno Correia Sergey Ovchinnikov biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our paper on computational design of chemically induced protein interactions is out in nature. Big thanks to all co-authors, especially Anthony Marchand, Stephen Buckley and Bruno Correia nature.com/articles/s4158…

Congrats to all entrepreneurs who participated in the Cork County Council MassChallenge B2MCCork boot-camp this week. Best of luck to UCC Ireland Pinpoint Technologies from @ucctechtransfer in the Boston boot-camp. Special shout-out to Health Innovation Hub Ireland and Enterprise Ireland for supporting great initiatives!

One of the 12 entrepreneurs whom will progress to #Boston in the @CorkCoco Bridge to MassChallenge Cork competition is BioBind. They provide a disruptive, low-cost, customisable technology that empowers biology researchers to see what they need to see inside & outside the body.

I've recently heard about this phenomenon on a Radiolab podcast. Cool they're making progress in understanding it, humbling how little we know. x.com/Gizmodo/status…
