SS Beta tested a mRNA vaccine design challenge by @3DMolDesigns w/ my own twist. SS modeled mRNA from SarsCOV2 Spike protein & published vaccine seq. Noting sim & diff. Using a structural RNA simulator, we ex the SHAPES of the unmod. mRNA & w pseudouridine! @STANYSorg @NYSMTP
ALT Students examining models of mRNA
ALT The structural differences between Sars Spike protein mRNA unmodified vaccine mRNA and mRNA with pseudouridine

Nothing better than hearing about protein design first hand! Take 4 minutes to watch David Baker (@UWproteindesign) explain what he loves about proteins.

We recently spent a day in the lab with 2024 @NobelPrize winner and HHMI Investigator David Baker, where he discussed his groundbreaking work, the importance of basic science, and his passion for mentorship #NobelPrize

Our @NATS_Science fall conference is next Friday Oct 18 and we're highlighting all presenters!
Cell membranes - we all got 'em! Ruth Hutson uses
@3DMolDesigns to explore this feature of life! (looks like railroad tracks...for a cell!)

Congrats to David Baker on winning the Nobel Prize in Chemistry! 🎉 3D Molecular Designs is proud to have created models of the remarkable proteins from his lab over the past 20 years! 🏆 #NobelPrize #DavidBaker

One thing I like about the Institute for Protein Design, in Seattle, is that they display models of their prior achievements at the entrance.
More research centers should have a "trophy room," just like sports teams. It may help students think more ambitiously, etc.

Bitter sweet day, the last day of Modeling the Molecular World @3DMolDesigns Teachers modeled chromosomes & DNA rep. 1 pic shows many of the models we used this week! Everyone was EXCITED to use these models in their classes! Grateful to be able to share w such AWESOME teachers!

Solving difficult problems while working with others - this is our main focus in our #pltwclassroom. Freshmen get their first exposure to our unique student led and project based environment during #zizzerday. @3DMolDesigns @PLTWorg @wpzizzers

New day -new phenomena to explore! Participants explored membrane transport from the cellular level to the molecular level using physical & computer based models! & examined how acetylcholinesterase relates to insecticide resistance in mosquitos @3DMolDesigns @NYSMTP @STANYSorg

Took a slight detour on my way back to Chicago from Oshkosh, & was warmly welcomed by Diane & Tim Herman of @3DMolDesigns where I was initially baptized in the art of engaging student learning of the molecular world underlying life! It was great to catch up! I’ll be back!
