What Natalie Niemi failed to mention here is that SHE WON AN OUTSTANDING FACULTY AWARD at this same event (along with the exceptional ASoranno)!

What incredible colleagues I get to work with 😍 WUSM Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics Washington U. DBBS

IDPSeminars is back this week on Thursday March 7th for two fantastic talks from Ashok Deniz and
Ji-Young Youn! Zoom info is sent out but if you can't find it, please head over to idpseminars.com to register (which gives you direct access to the zoom link)

So incredibly, deeply, well-deserved

Last chance to submit your abstract (until Tuesday, Feb 20!) to the upcoming EMBO/EMBL Symposium 'Cellular mechanisms driven by phase separation', taking place May 14-17 2024 in Heidelberg 👇 embl.org/about/info/cou… via EMBL

Breaking my self-imposed Twitter ban to congratulate Jeff Lotthammer on winning an SRRA award at this year's Biophysical Society Meeting!

Also, big congrats to Dr. Emery Usher Jhullian J. Alston, PhD and Jeff Lotthammer for excellent [flash]talks!

Do you know an undergrad in their 2nd or 3rd year thinking about grad school for biochem/biophys but hasn't had any hands-on research experience yet? We have a program for them (fully paid - $6K for 8 weeks!)

Also, for folks interested in the coordination of our work with Kresten Lindorff-Larsen Giulio Tesei's fantastic complementary paper published yesterday in nature, Jeff and I wrote a bit about this in the 'Behind the Paper' section on our Research Briefing

Now published!

This week we're excited to welcome Jeanne Stachowiak and David W. Sanders! to our first IDPSeminar of 2024! Zoom info has been sent out - if you're missing it just run through our registration form forms.gle/3yCHeYvuuqLhDg… for direct access!

We kick off our 2024 program next Thursday: The usual time - the usual place.

In the next three seminars we look forward to welcoming David W. Sanders!, Jeanne Stachowiak, Ashok Deniz (@scrippsresearch), Thibault Viennet (@Chemistry_AU) and Dragomir Milovanovic (@DZNE_en)

🎉It's finally out!! We show that intramolecular interactions in IDPs are strong enough to hold in the cell, but flexible enough to respond to cellular volume changes. A labor of love of many people, mainly recent graduate David Moses and Karina Guadalupe. shorturl.at/cdyR2
