Excited to share that I'll be starting a group D-BSSE, ETH Zurich researching at the intersection of protein design, biology and AI. Come join us! x.com/ETH_en/status/…

Our paper using ProteinMPNN redesign for improved properties is up on JACS! Huge thanks to Reyes, Indrek Kalvet, Sam, and many others for their work. Shout out to Justas Dauparas for developing such a groundbreaking (and versatile!) tool. Institute for Protein Design pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

Very honored and grateful to be one of the female scientist working at the IPD!

Our work on modeling and designing biomolecular assemblies is now in Science Magazine. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… RFAA Code: github.com/baker-laborato… RFdiffusionAA Code: github.com/baker-laborato…

Super excited to share our paper “Design of amyloidogenic peptide traps” is out now! 🧠 nature.com/articles/s4158… Special thanks to Ewa Andrzejewska , Danny Sahtoe and David Baker

👏🎊🙌🍾 TIME names David Baker among 100 Most Influential People in health ipd.uw.edu/2024/05/time-n… vía Institute for Protein Design

I'm very excited to share the work I've been doing over the last year! Contributing to new therapies for snakebite victims and collaborating with amazing scientists has been incredible! researchsquare.com/article/rs-440… Timothy Jenkins Institute for Protein Design

Yesterday we celebrated Susana Vazquez Torres for a thesis well defended! Neutralizing the 🐍

Stay tuned 🎧

I’ve always believed great science happens with great people. Couldn’t ask for a better team than Buwei, Green and Brian. Together, we created EndoTags, a de novo protein version of the foundational LYTAC system from the Bertozzi lab.Institute for Protein Design nature.com/articles/s4158…

I'm sharing my story in a difficult time for Palestinians and Lebanon, where we found refuge after being exiled from Haifa. I want to honor those who suffered the most and never got to live out their dreams—my grandparents, Jido Ali and Taita Khadejeh. I hope they’re proud (1/3)

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Chemistry with one half to David Baker “for computational protein design” and the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper “for protein structure prediction.”

Thrilled to have shared my personal and scientific journey on the Baker Lab podcast! I hope it serves as an inspiration for aspiring scientists in Latin America.

Cute story alert!🧵Caltech two clueless office mates (DanPiraner & I) created a tool to control cells with ultrasound. As postdocs (UC San Francisco & Institute for Protein Design), we teamed up again (with Majo Duran & Adam Chazin-Gray) to build a tool for engineered cell signaling nature.com/articles/s4158…

Excited to announce our new #proteindesign strategy for allosterically controlling the kinetics of protein-protein interactions! Read on for cool applications in cytokine signaling, biosensing, and protein circuits. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
