This war has started by an extremist genocidal goverment with people that should have been rotting in jail for some years now and by a cynical narcissist government which president shoud have been rotting in jail as well. 1/3

But this war has been condoned by each and every one of us, when we looked away in front of governental abuse or we did not speak out to a a bully, a friend or relative. 2/3

No scientific nor technological advance will matter if we don't improve as species. The great Gil Scott-Heron already said it "no hot water, no toilets, no lights. But whitey's on the moon". Now, yet again, down to fascism and down to colonialism! ✊🏻 3/3 #FreePalestine

Sometimes #AFM gives you this joy! micrometer wide Protein-based 2D layers made from a Computational Designer protein. Excited to see where this protein will lead us next! #BioAFM #AtomicForceMicroscopy #CPD #proteindesign #Nanobiotechnology @kullbmd @KU_Leuven #biochemistry

Happy to share that the DeepMainmast paper is out in Nature Methods. A fully automated protein str modeling for cryo-EM map. Can take Alphafold prediction and performs better than AF. nature.com/articles/s41592-0… Available at kiharalab.org/emsuites/deepm… Server: em.kiharalab.org/algorithm/D…

Happy to announce that one of our students was awarded a PhD fellowship from @FWOVlaanderen to develop computational-designer proteins into intracellullar probes. Looking forward to all great results to come. @KULeuvenChemie

ooh ... pretty. On the bottom right our pizza-pom hybrid is shown
We have beautiful new structure images on our PDBe pages thanks to PDBImages, a robust and scalable new pipeline, driven by @molstar0. Plus, the code is freely available on GitHub so you can try it yourself! 🔗 ebi.ac.uk/pdbe/news/pdbimage…

After a great #EBSA2023, time to relax and enjoy the city. No more science for a couple of days!

Day 4 at #EBSA2023 started with some protein thermodynamics (best way to wake up 🤪). FYI: come hang out with some cool AFM at my poster p.717! @kullbmd
