After spending quality time as a postdoc in the Bevilacqua lab at Penn State, I am ready for my move! I am looking for another #postdoc position where I can work on #RNA structure and function, and preferably outside the US. Please get in touch if you have ideas for me, thanks in advance!

Identification and characterization of shifted GU wobble pairs resulting from alternative protonation of RNA RNA can serve as an enzyme, small molecule sensor, and vaccine, and it may have been a conduit for the origin of life. Despite these profound functions, RNA is thought to have quite limited molecular ...

Happy to share the first #preprint from the Bevilacqua lab of 2025! Led by Dr. Saon, we show the presence of a shifted GU wobble base pair in RNA crystal structures that requires charged or tautomeric nucleobases. #chemsky #ChemBio Check it out here - www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
