I'm on the job market looking for faculty positions! If you want to talk about protein dynamics, precision medicine, drug resistance, and/or puppy photos, reach out!

This cryptic pocket has a function!

The VP35 protein from Ebola virus performs multiple functions. We wanted to know if it toggles between different conformations that are responsible for different functions.

It does!

There are more meetings, yes. Also there really is a completely different language in industry.

I like what I'm doing and I look forward to continuing to grow as a scientist!

[Matthew A Cruz, PhD @MatthewACruz]

I promise I'm alive! I don't really work on protein dynamics as explicitly anymore but I have enjoyed my first few months as an industry postdoc.

@drGregBowman much credit also goes to @CatieKnoverek and @ndbiochemist whose manual we based the document off!

[Matthew A Cruz, PhD @MatthewACruz]

honestly its thank God for Rsync all day every day

@SciVirusGuy 5 mL tubes are the best tbh! So useful.

I also accidentally stole that pen from the professor who lent it to me.

Dr. ⁦@MatthewACruz⁩ raised eyebrows when he headed straight for the recycling bin with the thesis approval form his committee had just signed. Turned out he just needed a flat surface to add his signature 😂
