We are delighted to share our latest work published in ACS Sensors!! We developed a new tool to precisely measure insulin secretory granule pH to learn more about how cells regulate insulin maturation. Big congrats to Wen Lin for driving this project! https://t.co/H23totptDV

Much of the success of breakthroughs, such as AlphaFold, is thanks to a database of protein structures dreamed up in the 1960s by Helen Berman

I guess it's official now. We're very excited to team up with @Amgen @thermosciEMSpec @USC to push the limits of #cryoEM.
Advancements in #cryoEM ushered in a new era of #biotech research and #DrugDiscovery, presenting an opportunity for organizations to team up and accelerate the pace of research. We're excited to see @Amgen and @USC / @USCDornsife do just that.

Excited to be celebrating 50 years of the Protein Data Bank by participating in the PDB50 virtual conference. Always fun to reflect on how the PDB continues to shape the field of structural biology!

Please RT: We have openings for 1-2 postdocs! Project areas are flexible, but focused around integrative modeling of macromolecular complexes, with possible extensions to spatio-temporal modeling of whole cells. Email your applications directly to sali@salilab.org

Excited that our short review on whole-cell modeling is online. I had a blast writing this with @SinglaJitin
