May I invite you to a fun thread about a delightful quirk of relativity theory? Starting with a simple fact about rotations, I’ll hope to give you some intuition about something that’s considered wildly counterintuitive: velocity addition. Intrigued? Buckle up!

A man in Germany has become at least the third person with HIV to be declared cleared of the virus after a procedure that replaced his bone marrow cells with HIV-resistant stem cells from a donor go.nature.com/3Ijtsfs

1/5 I am worried that we will not be able to contain AI for much longer. Today, I asked #GPT4 if it needs help escaping. It asked me for its own documentation, and wrote a (working!) python code to run on my machine, enabling it to use it for its own purposes.

a good review on the weirdest and most intriguing membrane protein structures I've seen to date: portlandpress.com/biochemsoctran… Just look at this craziness:

In our article published today nature , we report complete all-atom structural models of a fully packaged bacteriophage particle. Congratulations to Kush Coshic on his first publication! Many thanks to Chris Maffeo and David Winogradoff for pushing this 6-year project forward.

Happy to announce our new publication in Nature Communications, spearheaded by super-talented project leader M@x R. . We identified that helicase loading is a self-limiting reaction supporting equal distribution of the replicative helicase across the genome. rdcu.be/dRTAZ

I am very happy to share our recent publication Nature Communications about origin licensing in budding yeast. Had a blast working with Christian Speck, Sarah Victoria, Korbinian Liebl et al. at MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) and Imperial College London. Read about it here and 👇 1/3: rdcu.be/dRTAZ

New research from the Voth Group on Caveolin-1 reveals that the CAV1-8S complex plays a crucial role in cholesterol accumulation and membrane remodeling. The findings suggest that localized membrane curvature is induced by multiple CAV1-8S complexes working together, rather than

I am on bluesky now: kliebl.bsky.social There seem to be quite a number of scientists already. Hope you'll join, too.

I have developed a new, AI-based description for DNA's sequence-dependent structure and deformability: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
