[Saman Fatima @SamanFatimaUIUC]

My first few individual meetings with @OlshanskyLab went like: ‘I don’t even know what I don’t know.’ Here we are 3.5 years into the PhD program. Grateful for the learning, the growth & the amazing collaborations! Super excited for the future of swArMs! #PhD #AcademicTwitter

[H.S. Shafaat @ShafaatLab]

Congratulations Ashlee and team for this new paper! When it comes to improving light-driven catalysis, phototrigger electronics aren't everything... But they do help. This study seeks to learn why the "best" Ru compounds don't deliver the most improved HER

Here's a growing thread of Women in Protein Design. Hoping to raise awareness and reduce the silly excuse of not having women in panels for these topics because "we don't know of any". Shout if you know of more. Please RT for reach or QT an intro of yourself if on the list.

Metalloprotein design:

Fatima et al report switchable artificial metalloproteins (swArMs) that reveal how external triggers can change the H-bonding microenvironment.

What if we could universally recombine, insert, delete, or invert any two pieces of DNA?

In back-to-back @Nature papers, we report the discovery of bridge RNAs and 3 atomic structures of the first natural RNA-guided recombinase - a new mechanism for programmable genome design

@MAbbas003 @ManesisLab Thank you, Abbas!

[Saman Fatima @SamanFatimaUIUC]

Thank you @ManesisLab for your support! 🎉 I will truly miss you guys and our CLSL 3rd-floor shenanigans! 😭🥹

[Manesis Lab @ManesisLab]

Congratulations to Saman Fatima of the Olshansky Lab @OlshanskyLab on her successful defense today! It was such a beautiful and thought-provoking presentation! We’re so happy for you and know that your future looks so bright with all the amazing work you’ve already done!

[Saman Fatima @SamanFatimaUIUC]

@sarshad2 @ManesisLab Thank you, Dr. Salman!

[Saman Fatima @SamanFatimaUIUC]

@BridwellRabbLab Congratulations!!! 🎉🎊 I am excited about all the future research! 🔥

[Manesis Lab @ManesisLab]

Big congrats to our colleague down the hall, Lisa Olshansky @OlshanskyLab!What an amazing achievement! We’re so happy and excited for you!

@PaulJGriffin2 @OlshanskyLab @J_A_C_S Congratulations, Paul! 🎊

[Paul J. Griffin @PaulJGriffin2]

I was very excited to see my recent publication on electron transfer in copper complexes with @OlshanskyLab highlighted by a spotlight in @J_A_C_S ! The structural dynamics common to coordination chemistry are simply incredible. https://t.co/QR2IMe4dPY

[Paul J. Griffin @PaulJGriffin2]

The last part of my PhD work with @OlshanskyLab @ChemistryUIUC is out now in @J_A_C_S ! Intrinsic conformational dynamics, rather than rigidity, at Cu facilitate electron transfer in Cu complexes. https://t.co/H6T8tSIoZv

[Max Watkins @MaxwellBWatkins]

In an exceedingly rare occurrence I'm using social media for shameless self-promotion--in this case the bulk of my PhD work finally being published almost 7 years after I started it.

Studying metalloenzymes? Introducing anoxic SAXS (anSAXS) at @CHESS_user !

In this paper, @GabrielleIllava @AndoLab describes how we used chromatography-coupled anSAXS to study an🤘FeS cluster containing transcription factor 🤘🎸

Pleased to share the second first-author paper of my PhD with @OlshanskyLab @ChemistryUIUC in @DaltonTrans ! Here we describe the conformational dynamics of a Cu(II) complex with undergrad coauthors Matt and Alex! This was fun to write with a great team! https://t.co/VArUg5epLP
