🚀 Want to predict peptide properties using deep learning?
I'm excited to share the first Bilodeau Group paper, led by @Daniel24go, introducing PepMNet, a hierarchical graph model for predicting peptide properties!

Virtual Information Session 1 : Tuesday September 30, 8-9am
Virtual Information Session 2: Wednesday October 15, 9-10am
📢 UVA Chemical Engineering is recruiting new PhD students for Fall 2026! We will be holding a virtual information session where you can meet current faculty and students and learn more about our program.
Details below 👇
As I find myself having conversations about how to apply for faculty positions in Chemical Engineering, I wanted to share my thoughts from a few years ago on how to write a good faculty application research statement!
As deadlines approach for ChemE faculty apps, I've been giving a lot of feedback/delivering workshops on research statements. Some tips for how to write a great research statement🧵 (1/10)
Just a few days from the AIChE abstract submission deadline - Monday, April 7th! This year, I will be co-chairing the CoMSEF/Area 1a faculty candidate session alongside @ShuwenYue and @theIranianAlien. Please consider submitting your abstract!
I had a blast this past week talking about the future of AI+Science at the NSF Workshop on AI for Science with @ShuwenYue , Rebecca Lindsey and others!
such a great quote for a textbook dealing with uncertainty quantification.

Unapologetically black in 2025!
Diversity is our greatest asset, even if the government disagrees… They not like us!
They tried to rig the game but you can’t fake influence!
Mustard on the [Be][At] bro!
Happy Black History Month!

Funding from the @NIH contributed to the development of 354 out of 356 (99.4%) of the new drugs approved by the FDA between 2010 and 2019, and 🚨 100% 🚨 of FDA approved drugs btw 2010-2016. @NIH funding is the backbone of American biomedical innovation. #protecttheNIH
Finally, someone is reporting on how funding of new NIH grants is effectively frozen due to an administrative block 👇
Grants already submitted cannot be reviewed, and grants already reviewed with excellent scores cannot be funded. This is the opposite of "efficiency".
As we speak, scientisists across the country (including myself) are trying to to take care of simple administrative tasks related to the grants that we have recieved from the National Institutes of Health... 1/n
NIH fosters breakthroughs that profoundly affect how diseases are understood, prevented, and treated. These discoveries enhance health and longevity in the US and the world. NIH is a cornerstone of innovation so it is bizarre that it is under attack
