Dr. Jeetender Chugh's group from the #ChemistryDept at #IISERPune studied how protein structure determines function in their recent paper in the Journal of American Chemical Society @J_A_C_S
Using advanced NMR techniques, their work provides insights into the function of an RNA-binding protein implicated in neurodegenerative diseases.

Extremely happy to share that our first work on protein-templated metal nanoclusters has now been published in Angewandte Chemie: https://t.co/nw9iMJ1hG5.
Congratulations to all the students involved for their patience in starting and successfully completing something new.

Thanks to all who have supported and guided me through the journey and the satisfying part is most among them were able to make it to my thesis defence.!
We at @GoogleDeepMind are excited to announce #GNoME - an AI tool that has discovered 2.2 million new materials, and helps to predict material stability.
We're releasing 381K stable materials to help scientists pursue materials discovery breakthroughs.
