Alex Von Schulze, postdoc in the @HalfmannLab, is exploring how proteins clump together to form disease-linked amyloids, and why collaboration is the key to scientific discovery. 🧠 #neuroscience Learn more in this #PostdocProfile Q&A: bit.ly/4momNmV
MD simulations let you watch a microsecond or so of one protein's life in a box. But in the cell thousands of proteins work together, over much longer timescales. With @IlyaVakser's group and their new simulation method, GCell, we're now beginning to see this emergent behavior!

1/n Can LLMs perform scientific research? And, can they do so while enhancing key scientific values including transparency, traceability & verifiability? Check out our preprint on the "data-to-paper" platform. w the amazing @TalIfargan @LostInTranscrip arxiv.org/abs/2404.17605
Meet a #StowersGrad faculty member! Randal Halfmann (@HalfmannLab) seeks to understand #aging, the inexorable decline in cellular and bodily function that results from the unidirectional nature of self-assembly by supersaturated proteins. #PhD Learn more: bit.ly/43TtyVw
Great job Justin! Now we just need the yeast to write their own paper. #CRC23
one poster, 8 hands to hang it. #CRC2023 kicks off and everyone is excited to share their scientific discoveries with their peers. Great job @StowersXroads for organizing such a wonderful event @ScienceStowers. Shriram @HalfmannLab amazing presentation#researchtalks #scievents
Yes, science is FUN! (even for the nerds sitting in the corner with a calculator ;) Kate, thanks for helping make science accessible to everyone!

Ron is a pioneer on the mechanism of polyQ aggregation, and an inspiration to me. It was a nice surprise that our new in-cell method validated his twenty year-old model derived from rigorous test tube experiments. Good science stands the test of time!

Proud moment in the life of an academic -- first @StowersGrad PhD student from my lab. @arg_arginine - you set a high bar!
BIG NEWS! We've got an exciting new podcast coming your way 🥳 @K8theChemist, @kcur and the @ScienceStowers are teaming up for the new podcast Seeking A Scientist! Sign up on the website to stay up to date! ✉️ #seekingascientist
Big congrats to @avonschulze for receiving an NIH F32 fellowship! Very well-deserved! Can't wait to see the outcome of his project testing fundamental mechanism of aging. @NIHAging @ScienceStowers

Only 99 days until the The Protein Aggregation Conference: Exploring Rugged Landscapes #PACSRC. My fav conference, will be international for the first time in ~30 yrs. Come explore the seaside Irish landscape with us! web.cvent.com/event/720adec4…
News story by me for @ScienceStowers on signalosome science. Do you see the similarity between proper protein folding vs Stephan's Quintet?stowers.org/news/switch-na…
The latest paper from @HalfmannLab is now fully formatted at @eLife, bit.ly/3Sj8SjC. In the video, @arg_arginine uses a laser pulse to create “seeds” of CARD9 (top) that trigger activation of BCL10, how our #ImmuneSystem responds to pathogens. @unruhjay @jeff_j_lange
