She will deliver an award lecture at the upcoming Biophysical Society of Canada Annual Meeting in Winnipeg (event.fourwaves.com/bsc2026/pages).
Congratulations again Sarah!
Sarah is being recognized for her work in computational biophysics, including rigorous studies of intrinsically disordered proteins, mechanistic insights into protein allostery, and the development of molecular simulation methodologies that expand the scope and precision of biomolecular modelling.
This award recognizes an individual within the first 10 years of an independent appointment who has made outstanding contributions to biophysics in Canada and is emerging as a leader in the field.
The Biophysical Society of Canada is pleased to announce that Dr. Sarah Rauscher @sarahrauscher.bsky.social is the recipient of the 2026 Early Career Investigator Award. Congratulations!!
BSC is calling for nomination of the Trainee Paper Award (Deadline: Mar. 14). The nominee must be a trainee who is a leading author on a research paper of exceptional quality, originality, and impact in biophysics. For more details, visit: biophysicalsociety.ca/awards/train...
BSC is calling for nomination of the Doctoral Thesis Award. We recognize the achievements of doctoral trainees in biophysics who defended their theses last year with exceptional quality. Be sure to submit your nomination by March 14. For more information, visit: biophysicalsociety.ca/awards/docto...
Out today in @physrevresearch.bsky.social: "Information Thermodynamics of Cellular Ion Pumps", led by Julián Jiménez-Paz (@cornelluniversity.bsky.social), with @davidasivak.bsky.social (@sfuphysics.bsky.social)!
Reminder of the upcoming abstract deadline (March 7) for the Workshop on Stochastic Thermodynamics!
Delighted to share our recent article published in @pnas.org!
Provided insights into the shape of the lncRNA RMRP & identified two motors — DDX5 and DDX3X — that help it reach the mitochondria. Without them, RMRP is trapped in the nucleus, disrupting mitochondrial genes.
