OHSU has a great post-bac program for PEERs - "Persons Excluded because of their Ethnicity or Race". One year of paid, mentored research! Please spread the word to folks who might benefit. ohsu.edu/postbaccalaure…

The Cell, Developmental & Cancer Biology Summer Research Internship at OHSU Knight Cancer Institute is an opportunity for undergraduates to immerse themselves in research with OHSU Knight Cancer Institute faculty. Learn more and apply to join us today: spr.ly/6012MLdae

Our editorial on MD simulations presents a checklist for reporting and assessing simulation data and data #reproducibility as a guideline for publishing high quality computational work in the journal: nature.com/articles/s4200… by Yun (Lyna) Luo jungjin

Important effort here. How can trainees avoid common (and less common) mistakes?

We have a new issue out! This includes our first "version 2" article, an updated and expanded article dealing with a new version of the WESTPA enhanced sampling package: livecomsjournal.org/index.php/live… Issue: livecomsjournal.org/index.php/live… #compchem

Statistical mechanics - equil and noneq - can enhance sampling and data analysis. Microscopic mechanisms can be inferred from simple experimental data. Learn how, in one of the most beautiful parts of the world. Postdoc/student, email your suitable background, project ideas.

Great opportunity to expand your skillset and impact!

Nominate an outstanding early or mid-career scientist for an award from the Theory & Computation subgroup of the Biophysical Society . biophysics.org/awards-funding…

Possibly of interest to folks in the chemistry publishing/open access area. Does anyone know how download numbers for more traditional journals compare? Personally I haven't seen these types of stats except for preprints, where these seem to compare favorably, but I'm curious.

We have a new tutorial out, on absolute binding free energy calculation via a NAMD-based approach, SAFEP. livecomsjournal.org/index.php/live…

And we also have a new suite of tutorials for getting started with the BioSimSpace framework for interoperable biomolecular simulations; this comes with a big set of example notebooks. livecomsjournal.org/index.php/live… #compchem

Register now for the free WESTPA Workshop Pitt Chemistry, June 20-21. Explore rare event simulations like protein folding, ligand binding, & chemical reactions with our open-source software. Perfect for those using AMBER, NAMD, GROMACS, etc. Reg info: forms.gle/6gJF6jJ72iexbD…

Nonequilibrium physics rules the world. Here are eight chapters introducing key aspects of nonequilibrium biophysics illustrated with simple examples. osf.io/9yq2n/

New blog post up, on why Living Journal of Computational Molecular Science matters! livecomsjournal.org/index.php/live… We're seeing some conventional journals adopting some of our ideas, so it's worth taking a moment to reflect. #compchem

Awesome postdoc position alert!! Despite, or because of, being Twitter-less, Ed Lyman is a great mentor, scientist, and human being. Interested in membrane proteins, simulations, machine learning, physics, evolution, bioinformatics?? Apply! Check out below 👇👇👇

A recent news article in Nature described increasing numbers of editors mass resigning from for-profit journals, a symptom of misalignment of incentives between publishers’ demand for growth and profits, and the academics’ priority of quality, depth: nature.com/articles/d4158… 1/n

It's finally out! Outstanding work by @atbogetti Matthew Zwier using WESTPA Software AMBER md

Bayesian inference is vital to interpreting experimental data. Learn the relationship of BI to statistical mechanics including important nuances, and get a ‘sampling’ of modern Monte Carlo methods for BI. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…
