Jeffrey J. Gray @jeffreyjgray.bsky.social · 26/03/2026Over the last few months, I have experimented with a return to TwiX. But it has weighed on me. It’s just not a community environment consistent with my values. Therefore, I am again suspending my use of TwiX. A couple reasons recently: 321
Jeffrey J. Gray @jeffreyjgray.bsky.social · 02/03/2026Enjoying a swing through New England. After a fun time at @bpdmc.org, Ethan Eschbach hosted me for a visit with @sandercbio.bsky.social and the @deboramarks.bsky.social lab. I was also thrilled to give a talk at the Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth hosted by T. Emme Burgin. What a fun week! 041
Jeffrey J. Gray @jeffreyjgray.bsky.social · 02/03/2026Thank you @sokrypton.org and @cdbahl.com for your hospitality and congrats to you for creating a warm scientific community at @bpdmc.org.

Jeffrey J. Gray @jeffreyjgray.bsky.social · 21/01/2026For the new year, I’ll start posting again on X. I’m frustrated by its algorithm, uncivil discourse, and the owner's politics. But our work can also reach a much broader audience. Grateful to Jeremy Wang helping manage my social media. Excited to share more of our work! 010
Jeffrey J. Gray @jeffreyjgray.bsky.social · 23/12/2025As someone trained in physics, this project really helped me learn the nuances of denoising diffusion models. The “time” variable acts as an alchemical transformation—e.g. RFDiffusion transforms between protein structure and an ideal gas. Read the paper here! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 2103
Jeffrey J. Gray @jeffreyjgray.bsky.social · 18/12/2025Meet our new JHU ChemBE PhD student, Matthew Adrian!

Fun fact: Matt is the starting goalie for JHU Ice Hockey! 🏒 010
Jeffrey J. Gray @jeffreyjgray.bsky.social · 13/12/2025Somewhat belated, but here’s our lab contingent at European Rosetta Con in Slovenia! As always, the welcoming @rosettacommons.bsky.social provided incredible scientific discussions, collaborations, and networking. With @britnie-carpentier.bsky.social, Natalia Rincon, and @fatimolecule.bsky.social! 251
Jeffrey J. Gray @jeffreyjgray.bsky.social · 03/11/2025Congratulations to @swcanner.bsky.social for the successful defense of his thesis, “The Protein Sugar Interactome”! Leveraging deep learning and AI, he created tools and uncovered putative structural interactions underlying intercellular communication. He will receive his diploma in December. 051
Jeffrey J. Gray @jeffreyjgray.bsky.social · 08/10/2025Excited to share our new preprint “Unified Sampling and Ranking for Protein Docking with DFMDock” by PhD candidate Lee-Shin Chu and Post-Doc Sudeep Sarma! We designed a diffusion docking model that samples rigid-body conformations by predicting forces and ranks poses using predicted energies. 274

Jeffrey J. Gray @jeffreyjgray.bsky.social · 10/09/2025Meet our new post-doc, Alejandra Montaño Romero! PhD in @cryoet.bsky.social’s lab (JHMI), she studied neurodevelopmental mutations in glutamate receptors via experimental & in silico work. Now she will improve deep learning for membrane proteins and design therapeutic antibodies targeting them! 050
Jeffrey J. Gray @jeffreyjgray.bsky.social · 14/01/2025Our post-bac program will give you a year of research training after you finish undergraduate. Work on incredible biomolecular structure and design projects (e.g. antibody engineering, or deep learning algorithms), and have great mentoring and support in applying for grad schools and fellowships. 050
