This account will disappear soon... keep up with the lab at thompson-lab.bsky.social
Hope to see you over there!
Check out our latest preprint with @Chica_lab where we demonstrate the creation of highly active artificial enzymes by incorporating experimental crystallographic data into the design strategy...
Happy to share our latest preprint, in collaboration with @MThompsonLab.

I am so excited to share that I will be starting a lab in January 2024 as an Assistant Professor at @OHSUSOM in Portland! I am building my team, so if you are interested in cellular cryoelectron tomography, computational structural biology, and working in PDX, hit me up!

Going to #bps2023? Would love to catch up between sessions or in one of the poster sessions. Here's what's coming from our lab:
@FengYu_Bio is presenting his newest preprint at the IDP I platform, Sunday 9:00 AM in Rm. 6C

What is mentorship to structural biologist @stevendamolab1?
“A collaborative partnership with goals for both the mentee + the mentor.” 🫱🏿🫲🏾🫱🏼🫲🏾#NationalMentoringMonth

Here we present a method that can scale and merge data from different types of diffraction experiments -- monochromatic, polychromatic, XFEL, and more! Give it a try! Check out the examples: github.com/rs-station/carele…
We're excited to share our new publication, "A unifying Bayesian framework for merging X-ray diffraction data," live now in Nature Comm!
In this paper, Kevin Dalton and @JackGreisman present "careless", a python package for Bayesian scaling and merging

Interested in grad school? Come join a young, dynamic, and supportive environment at UC Merced's Chemistry and Biochemistry grad program. Two webinars at Nov. 17th (8 AM PST, 3 PM GMT)and Dec. 6th (11 AM PST). Register here: shorturl.at/nwy78
DMs open for questions!
Was an honor to help our collaborator Judith Klinman celebrate her 80th birthday last weekend in Berkeley, with @klinmanlab members, colleagues, friends, and family!! Lots of great science highlights, and some sage advice too...
