Big congratulations to Aleksandra Panfilova who defended her PhD last week! Aleks has been teasing apart models of protein interactions and consequences of mutations on these, preprint coming soon! She’s now looking for new opportunities in Estonia, so reach out to hear if you’re hiring 😊

Fittingly, I arrived just in time for a talk from the organiser’s group @ajasjaljubetic.bsky.social 🚶‍♀️
Hotel banquet room with lots of round tables, lots of protein design aficionados, and an ongoing presentation on protein walkers

Airplane sunrise is the reward for early departures. Looking forward to European RosettaCon 2025!

Almost done, just need to add a bit of background.

Last chance to register for the 2025 European RosettaCon - we had a blast last year, and @ajasjaljubetic.bsky.social is putting together a great program. With Easter eggs 🥚 in the submission system!

Testing how AI-proof my homework and exam questions are. Images and graphs are a real challenge for current LLMs. This "HMM" for membrane proteins look nothing like the real deal.
ChatGPT-generated HMM of a transmembrane protein. Details not described as they are rather wrong.

Cool talk by Andrea Thorn on structure curation and correction of SARS CoV2 models during the pandemic. Featuring many artefacts that are in principle known but often not automatically detected - and how her group is working on fixing some of them.

While the plenary sessions are over, we have workshops this afternoon - here the industry career panel chaired by my industry co-organisers Roland Pache, Johanna Tiemann @ Novonesis and Che Yang @ Novo Nordisk.

We’re now well into day 2 and touching upon many new topics, from protein interactions - with ligands, carbs and ofc other proteins - to more exotic applications like semiconductor design 🚀 Here Ora Furman talks about flexible peptide binding, illustrated by our local colleague Birthe Kragelund

So excited to be hosting #europeanrosettacon 2024 this week! Starting with a session on enzyme design (of course), here with Don Hilvert giving the opening keynote. Many thanks to #novonordiskfoundation, #rosettacommons and #isbuc for support!
