📰 ASAP from C-GEM in @ACSCentSci:

An exciting collaboration with our friends at Amgen and Schrödinger to demonstrate incorporation of multiple extended backbones in a protein in vivo ✨

Congrats to @NoahXHamlish and the rest of the team!

One sketch at a time.

[NSF Center for Genetically Encoded Materials @cgem_cci]

We are so honored to be on the cover of this month's @ACSCentSci! Kudos to @sarahsmaga and twitterless Josh who turned @AlannaSchepartz's sketch into reality 🎨 #NSFfunded

How it started // How it's going

[Alanna Schepartz @AlannaSchepartz]

I am so proud to announce that two @UCBerkeley graduate students in @schepartzlab - @alphahelical and Lauren Lesiak - were both awarded @NSF graduate research fellowships AND @angeIuis was awarded an Honorable Mention! Congratulations to you and of course all the awardees!!!!!!⭐️
