In the nucleus, many intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) form condensates. What IDP sequence features drive this behavior? We developed CondenSeq, a high-throughput approach to measure nuclear condensate formation, and applied it to ~14,000 IDPs to find out! rdcu.be/eq975

Small proteins can be more complex than they look! We know proteins fluctuate between different conformations- but by how much? How does it vary from protein to protein? Can highly stable domains have low stability segments? @ajrferrari.bsky.social experimentally tested >5,000 domains to find out!

The variability across the 20 conformations in a typical NMR ensemble in the PDB represents the uncertainty from the lack of experimental data and not the dynamics of the protein in solution Thanks for coming to my TED talk

How to make a presentation? Don't save the best for last! Right from the start, describe your main question and a summary of your big idea. Everyone is listening at those first few minutes but they'll only continue to listen if you grab their attention.
