The new herpesfolds.org is online! We completely revamped the website and database for smoother browsing! Have a look at proteome-wide herpesvirus structural predictions and all possible PPIs! Thanks to Malte Kansy and Tim Soh!

We made herpesfolds for all pox-virologists :-) poxfolds.org. Proteome-wide predictions of MPOX, VACV, and VARV in a handy cheat-sheet homology table, as well as structure-based clustering! MPOX all against all PPI predictions will follow soon! Thanks to Tim and Malte

We ran a complete in-silico protein interaction screen of the monkeypox proteome (MPXV_USA_2022_NY002) using AlphaFold. Have a look at the interactive PPI network poxfolds.org/poxppis.php All data is open source and can also be downloaded at zenodo

Our Herpesfolds paper is out in Nature Communications! rdcu.be/d1uM7 Congrats to Timothy Soh, Sofia Ognibene, Saskia Sanders, Robin Schaeper and Benedikt Kaufer! Have a look at our database at herpesfolds.org by Malte Kansy

Within the GradSchool VISION we are looking for talented and interested PhD students - see the job ad below. Come and join us in this vibrant and motivating collaborative network!

We have a PhD position open! Please apply if you are interested in proteome-wide interaction networks of large DNA viruses and target them with in-silico-designed protein binders. Our colleagues have many more fascinating projects. Check them out at rtg-vision.de/projects-2nd-c…

Our symposium "Mechanisms of Infection: from structure to translation" will take place from May 7-8. Over the next weeks, we will be introducing our 15 confirmed speakers. Sriram Subramaniam from University of British Columbia will be giving the key note. cssb-hamburg.de/symposium2025

About 1,5 years ago I predicted in a little writeup for the ExC RESIST that ever more capable LLMs will soon make scientific review articles obsolete. From the initial results I have from #OpenAIs #DeepResearch, this is happening very soon…

The first session of our symposium "Mechanisms of Infection: from structure to translation" is Viruses. Marylyn Addo from UKE Hamburg will give a talk during this session. Register by April 8! t1p.de/xu79k

We have reached a point where we can use an AI tool to write 95% of a doctoral thesis that meets the requirements of a degree. Inevitably, this raises numerous questions, the most pressing being: what is a PhD still worth when anyone can have their thesis written almost

The fourth and final speaker in the Parasites session of our symposium is Ron Dzikowski from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Register for the symposium by April 8: t1p.de/gztmj
