Condensates can dynamically enhance transcriptional bursts based on proximity!.Happy I could contribute to this story w/ parts of my master thesis. Thank you to @IbrahimCisse_ @manyu_du @Cisse_lab @mpi_ie for the exciting science and learning experience!.
Excited to share my postdoctoral work is now online @CellCellPress thanks to all the coauthors that contributed to this work!.

Came home today greeted by a nice physics demonstration: the afternoon sun hitting my bathroom mirror in just the right angle to function as a prism and produce a rainbow in the hallway. Science can be so pretty.

Rate my level of nerdiness: Anecdotally, I just realized that my reading speed seems to correlate with how much I Iike a book. Now I have a strong urge to collect data and quantify it.

Super excited about the amazing and incredibly diverse biophysics from all over the world, being presented at #BPS2024. Looking forward to day three now.
Currently, our Director @IbrahimCisse_ chairs the #BPS2024 meeting by @BiophysicalSoc #Philadelphia. To learn more about his department here #freiburg – have a look at this 🎬 brand-new movie.

It was a long journey, but our work on multidomain RNA binding is finally out in NAR Genomics and Bioinformatics. Our model suggests that "the total avidity is determined not only by the affinities of individual motifs but [. ] their number and density.".
Super excited to share the @biorxivpreprint of my first ever paper! We demonstrate with a thermodynamic model, the dramatic increase in affinity and specificity, by cooperative binding of multi-domain proteins.

While I applaud the new @eLife model to transform academic publishing, here is my idea:.Instead of submitting to individual journals, authors go through a centralized, open review, and journals fight over papers on a "marketplace". Along the lines of @ReviewCommons. #OpenScience.

When I *Listen* to a *Talk*, I don't want to *Read* walls of text at the same time. I don't read text-only slides, unless for summary slides, slides explaining complicated maths, or if I am explicitly given the time. Also: No-Slide talks can be great. #SciComm #AcademicChatter.

His warning on the next page: "I have referred to the practical utilisation of subatomic energy as an illusive hope which it would be wrong to encourage; but in the present state of the world it is rather a threat which it would be a grave responsibility to disparage altogether."

"My vision is that some day these fuel arrangements will no longer be needed; instead of pampering the appetite of the engine with delicacies like coal and oil, we shall induce it to work on a plain diet of subatomic energy.". A. S. Eddington dreaming about nuclear power in 1934.
