Hi everyone - I think I'm going to try to move my engagement over to bsky. Please find me there at https://t.co/qV7ZEQoiZJ

Looking forward to connecting with the science community over there!

Not entirely sure how we got to this place in chem bio / molecular bio where it's like "if the figure in your paper doesn't go to at least panel 'h' then did you even do anything?"

It's not helpful and we're hurting our own field. Those who do peer review can push back on this.

[James W. Checco @JamesWChecco]

@zenbrainest Really? Wow! For that to happen do you usually have to have a conversation with the PO to "make your case", or can this happen on its own?

[Nebraska Chemistry @unlchemistry]

Last week, we proudly celebrated the Cliff S. Hamilton Award, honoring the exceptional achievements of Prof. Herbert Waldmann & outstanding graduate student Momodou Camara. Thank you to everyone who joined us in recognizing these remarkable contributions to the field!

@UWBiochem @NeugMonicaElena Wow! Congratulations, Monica!!

[James W. Checco @JamesWChecco]

@mike_feigin I think this is great! I usually prefer talks that focus on a small number of stories and drive home a main message.

BREAKING NEWS
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Chemistry with one half to David Baker “for computational protein design” and the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper “for protein structure prediction.”

The Wild Robot is a terrific movie. Beautiful story, and is one of the most impressive-looking animated movies I think I have ever seen. Wow!
