This account will disappear soon... keep up with the lab at thompson-lab.bsky.social Hope to see you over there!


Check out our latest preprint with @Chica_lab where we demonstrate the creation of highly active artificial enzymes by incorporating experimental crystallographic data into the design strategy...

Happy to share our latest preprint, in collaboration with @MThompsonLab Design of efficient artificial enzymes using crystallographically-enhanced conformational sampling biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I am so excited to share that I will be starting a lab in January 2024 as an Assistant Professor at @OHSUSOM in Portland! I am building my team, so if you are interested in cellular cryoelectron tomography, computational structural biology, and working in PDX, hit me up!

Going to #bps2023? Would love to catch up between sessions or in one of the poster sessions. Here's what's coming from our lab: @FengYu_Bio is presenting his newest preprint at the IDP I platform, Sunday 9:00 AM in Rm. 6C

🙌 Thank you @MikeThompson and the @ThompsonLab for inviting @JulienJorda to present Pythia's use of #AI to design AB Initio Protein Binders at the CBC Seminars @ucmerced In case you missed it, here are some pictures of him in action!

What is mentorship to structural biologist @stevendamolab1? “A collaborative partnership with goals for both the mentee + the mentor.” 🫱🏿‍🫲🏾🫱🏼‍🫲🏾#NationalMentoringMonth

Here we present a method that can scale and merge data from different types of diffraction experiments -- monochromatic, polychromatic, XFEL, and more! Give it a try! Check out the examples: github.com/rs-station/car…

We're excited to share our new publication, "A unifying Bayesian framework for merging X-ray diffraction data," live now in Nature Comm! In this paper, Kevin Dalton and @JackGreisman present "careless", a python package for Bayesian scaling and merging nature.com/articles/s4146…

The Thompson Lab (@MThompsonLab) studies protein structure and function using X-ray crystallography. They develop new methods with a collaborative approach to science. Projects include protein design, drug discovery, and temp sensing. They're hiring! tinyurl.com/3zuk952n

Was an honor to help our collaborator Judith Klinman celebrate her 80th birthday last weekend in Berkeley, with @klinmanlab members, colleagues, friends, and family!! Lots of great science highlights, and some sage advice too...

Thrilled to wake up this morning to the news of one of my chemistry heroes, @CarolynBertozzi, winning the Nobel Prize! It's impossible to listen to one of her talks without getting excited and inspired by the science!!

BREAKING NEWS: The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2022 #NobelPrize in Chemistry to Carolyn R. Bertozzi, Morten Meldal and K. Barry Sharpless “for the development of click chemistry and bioorthogonal chemistry.”
