CrAI, a tool using machine learning to automatically find antibodies in cryo-EM densities, is now available in ChimeraX (menu Tools / More Tools)! CrAI runs in seconds on a CPU, at resolutions up to 10A. Learn more at cxtoolshed.rbvi.ucsf.edu/apps/chimeraxc…

We’re really happy to share our preprint demonstrating the atomically-accurate design of single-domain antibodies (VHHs) with RFdiffusion!

Atomically accurate de novo design of single-domain antibodies biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #bioRxiv

We’re excited to share our preprint where we show, for the first time, the atomically accurate design of VHH antibodies!

We're hiring a Research Assistant (full-time, Seattle WA).

Main duties include protein characterization and electron microscope operation. Experience in protein structural biology is highly desired. Bachelor's degree required.

I am honored to have been selected by HHMI NEWS to become part of the #HHMIInvestigators family. Grateful to my previous mentors as well as past/current trainees and collaborators. I am so excited about the science ahead of us!

I’m happy to announce that effective April 15, every adult in Washington will be eligible to receive a COVID-19 vaccination.

Pleased to share our latest paper: 'Complete and cooperative in vitro assembly of computationally designed self-assembling protein nanomaterials' Nature Communications. Featuring brilliant native mass spec from HeckLab

Our new preprint is out. We found that a single shot of the current COVID-19 vaccines boost the neutralizing antibody response in people who were previously infected, and that these antibodies have neutralizing activity against B.1.351 and SARS-1.

CONGRATULATIONS to freshly minted, Dr. Daniel R. Ellis! Dan just defended his thesis, “Design of Novel Antigens and Immunogens to Improve Influenza Vaccines.” Dan has been with us since the beginning, and is our first PhD graduate. We are beyond proud of him. Dan Ellis

Reviewing a manuscript without figures in the text is painful enough, but having captions separate from the figures is just adding insult to injury.

In this digital age can't we just have figures and captions inline with text for manuscripts?
