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

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

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-natu…

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

I just went to a planning meeting about our new @ScienceStowers postdoc onboarding/training program and I’m so excited about it. Our grad program @GSSIMR has been so successful and this is bringing those advantages and more to our postdocs. 💕💕

In a study published in @eLife, Alejandro Rodríguez Gama, a predoc in the @HalfmannLab, uncovered thermodynamic forces that drive activation of our immune system in an “all-or-nothing” manner via assembly of large protein complexes called signalosomes. bit.ly/3tPre12

With to-do's & deadlines, sometimes daily life can get in the way of purposeful discussion & planning. This week many of our members are attending a Spring Science Retreat @nelson_atkins where they are engaging in activities that encourage creative thinking & exchanging of ideas.

Gorgeous view from my room @ScienceStowers! Excited to be in #KC for the @BioNexusKC 2022 Nexus Informatics Conference this week.

Happy to announce that my promotion to Full has been approved! 🍻🎉🥂
Also, I'll take this tweet to shamelessly promote my opening for a biophysics/soft-matter/LLPS postdoc:

Stop publishing-in/reviewing/editing for Elsevier journals? Interesting scholar-led initiatives that could use your support include @scipost_dot_org @PeerCommunityIn @PREreview_ . Support @DORAssessment to make change easier (JIFs r dumb& publisher-exploited in pricing strategy) – at Hammersmith, London

I start seeing more and more @PlauditPub beside publications, often in repository.
It works with ORCID, DOI, CrossRef, and is a not for profit organisation.
Really good idea. let's use it !
