My first presentation at a regional ACS meeting! April 2006!

new year’s resolution: be like sharks

The thing about working with nucleic acids is that you’ll forget proteins can carry positive charge and need anions to neutralize 🤦🏻‍♀️

Uranus and Neptune don’t have magnetic poles, according to data from NASA Voyager. The disordered magnetic field could be created by mantles with two liquid layers: one water layer and another carbon, nitrogen, and hydrogen layer. In PNAS: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Using SIRAH to coarse grain my glycosylayed antibody! Hooray for (1) tutorials that work, and (2) my first foray into CG! Can I join the #glycotime club?

Messing around with pyrophosphates, hopefully adding them to modXNA in the near future. Then off to tackle termini mods. Then Thanksgiving prep begins. 👏🏻 checking 👏🏻those 👏🏻boxes

We are looking for a #CompChem postdoc to implement MELD (Modeling Employing Limited Data) into the AMBER suite of programs and test new applications in integrative modeling. Work with @adrianroitberg.bsky.social and me at #UFChemistry! Apply here explore.jobs.ufl.edu/en-us/job/53...

🧬 Excited to share our new preprint! DMS chemical mapping, a key technique for studying RNA structure. Everyone assumes low DMS reactivity = Watson-Crick , high = non-WC. However, analyzing 7,500 RNA structures containing known 3D structures reveals it's not that simple. doi.org/10.1101/2024...

My students decided to try running MD with a 100 fs timestep today so we’re going to read the Ryckaert SHAKE paper

Updated ff94 atom types AND ran a 5k. The atom types were more exhausting 😩

Hello! Im a research chemist working at NIST. This means my work supports US commerce through improving measurements of molecules. I work in a group of all types of structural biologists.

Im proud of my research, sure, but we WON THE PUMPKIN CARVING COMPETITION this year

I love a good pick up meeting.

Hey!! So happy to see someone excited about our work!
