Check out work by Jonathon Ditlev, Ani Chattaraj, Bruce Mayer, Zeynep Baltaci, where we show how the SP concept can help deduce new features of a well known in vitro experimental condensate system. Phase Transition Papers @PappulabWashU biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Very eager to participate in this Biophysical Society sponsored discussion along with @frettinglab where we will share our experiences as PD reviewer for Biophysical Journal. Do tune in if you can! #PostDocReviewerProgram

Important new contribution by Ani Chattaraj and Eugene Shakhnovich. Separation of sticker-spacer energetics governs the coalescence of metastable biomolecular condensates biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

🎉 Excited to announce the 23rd edition of the International Conference on Systems Biology (ICSB) at IIT Bombay India from Nov 30- Dec 5, 2024!🗓️ Abstract submissions and registrations will start soon. Stay tuned for more updates! icsb2024.com Theoretical Systems Biology Group @icsb2023

Excited to announce that the Shakhnovich Biophysics Lab Harvard Chemistry is now on Twitter! Follow us for lab-related news, interesting science, and new publications. Stay tuned and join our scientific journey! 🧬🧪🔬

Gearing up for the Keystone Symposia on Biomolecular Condensates, taking place at the beautiful Colorado. Looking forward to the exciting talks and discussions on biological phase separation. #KSCondensates25

In this study in MBoC, Ani Chattaraj and Zeynep Baltaci spearhead our efforts (w/ Les Loew & Bruce Mayer) to develop methods to quantitatively understand and predict phase separation of multivalent binding partners using computational modeling and precise quantitative microscopy

In this article, we compare simulations and in-vitro experiments to show that Solubility product is a good proxy to identify the phase transition threshold for heterotypic condensates. Wonderful collab between Les Loew and Jonathon Ditlev Mechanistic Modeling of Cell Systems

Can the dynamic dance of sticker-spacer polymers unlock new insights into biological condensates? 🧬🔍 #Biophysics #Condensates #Metadynamics qeios.com/read/RMDC8N

What drives two liquid droplets to merge? The usual answer is surface tension. This picture is slightly different for biological condensates. To know more, please check out our recent Biophysical Journal paper: doi.org/10.1016/j.bpj.… Harvard Chemistry Shakhnovich Lab

Mark your calendars!! 🗓️ The third Young Biophysicists Meeting will be held on the coming Monday (May 5th) from 11am - 12pm EST. We have four exciting talks lined up for you, see you all soon! Find out more : shorturl.at/4oKNe

Huge thanks to all the incredible speakers who have shared their research at the Young Biophysicists Meeting so far! Here's a glimpse. See you in the next session!

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT📣: I haven’t been this excited to be part of something new in 15 years… Thrilled to reveal the passion project I’ve been working on for the past year and a half!🙀🥳 It started from my frustration with the depressing effect that the current publishing system has
