@lsanger Nobel Laureate Dr. Michael Levitt in the section on his Covid research. It misrepresents his research & slanders him using a source known to be a biased hit piece. https://t.co/wG2asMWAgn. I worked w/him during Covid; if you need more explaination please contact me.

I am so happy to see this paper by @PaulRobustelli, whom I have never met but would like to. It characterizes structure in disordered proteins using the writhe of the chain. I used this is 1983 to calculate protein structure using known pairs-wise interactions. I was

We're inspired by work in the late 70s by Harold Scheraga using differential geometry to describe polymer conformations ( https://t.co/woUsnlUCiv) and a @MLevitt_NP2013 1983 JMB classic ( https://t.co/xSTlf1E0D2) calculating writhe of protein conformations using discrete segments.

This is really exciting work that I am proud to be a part of. RNA is a remarkable material as it has structure and also carries information. My first paper published in 1969 modeled RNA structure in transferRNA. The paper by @GalOren8 is about using AI to better predict

Iโ€™ve recently updated German data to use more user-friendly 10-year age groups instead of the previous 5-year intervals. The difference was surprisingly large, so I decided to investigateโ€”digging deep into the code for about three days to verify everything. Hereโ€™s what I found:

Editing messenger RNA could allow a single mRNA vaccine to code for different proteins. Sounds risky to me. Still , it may have importance in future.

Agree with you. Is this because it in spite of the US embargo of the fastest GPU chips. Reminds me of the hidden story in LIU Cixinโ€™s trilogy โ€œThree Body Problemโ€.

Thank you all so much. These comments feel like a dream come true. I recognize so many names of friends I have never met and wish I could. What happened to all those who fought against any non-establishment views on COVID-19. I miss a few of them who argued with integrity.
