Our recent collaborative work with Procko lab on Deep Mutagenesis of #serotonin #transporter coupled with MD simulations to understand the origins of variant effects. #compchem #biorxiv_biophys Transporters and Solute carriers Peter Nollert @ChBE_Illinois U of I School of Molecular and Cellular Biology U of I College of LAS Research & Innovation at Illinois

.MolSSI 2021-A Seed Software Fellow Matthew C. Chan (Shukla Group) developed a model that uses transfer learning to decode the sequence, structure, and function of proteins. This model could be used to predict how mutations affect coronavirus viability. bit.ly/36D5Jol



Check out this interesting work in Nature Catalysis on the shape of water in zeolites from Flaherty group Flaherty_Catalysis! Matthew Chan Matthew C. Chan from our group performed simulations to understand how #water in nanopores impacts #catalysis. ChBE Illinois news.illinois.edu/view/6367/2195…

Super excited to see this out Nature Catalysis. We (Flaherty_Catalysis) partnered with Matthew C. Chan, Diwakar Shukla, Chris Nicholas to show that water molecules form thermodynamically-distinct structures in zeolite pores of different shapes and sizes. tinyurl.com/hthxh8w4




🚨NEW PAPER ALERT🚨 Experiments and FAH were combined to study an engineered ACE2 receptor for capturing and identifying #SARSCoV2 variants of concern. Check it out in Nature Chemical Biology nature.com/articles/s4158… x.com/nchembio/statu…

Our first paper on serotonin transporter published in Biophysical Journal. Congratulations to Matthew Chan Matthew C. Chan and Balaji Selvam for this excellent work on “The Substrate Import Mechanism of the Human Serotonin Transporter”. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

I'm excited to see my artwork is featured on this month's Biophysical Journal cover! And thanks to ChBE Illinois for displaying it on campus! #sciart


Today, I defended my Ph.D. Thanks all the support from my lab, family, and friends! Shukla Group ChBE Illinois

Even within my first month, I can already say that the #MahanFellowship and Fred Hutch Cancer Center has been a wonderful opportunity for me to work alongside exceptional scientists and pursue exciting computational and biomedical research!

We have an open faculty search Fred Hutch Cancer Center in Seattle & are looking for a new PI to join us: bit.ly/join-hutch 🧪🧬 I always speak in hyperboles, but I've had the best time starting my lab here. DM me if you have questions or wanna hear me hype Hutch Basic Sciences more.




Shoutout to all the Folding@home donors that helped me make this work possible!

Just two computational biophysicists in the wild. MountRainierNPS w/REI Jiming F Chen #phdlife


Thanks Biophysical Journal for highlighting our work!
