a person in bed with the covers pulled up. "due to not wanting to, i will not. thanks."
When invited to review a manuscript, I decline. Then I am asked why I am declining. Seems like personal information and I need to add this meme.
27.05.2025 19:56 β π 33 π 4 π¬ 4 π 1Huge thanks to all the incredible speakers who have shared their research at the Young Biophysicists Meeting so far!
Here's a glimpse.
See you in the next session!
Excited to share our latest work on how protein shape regulates multilayered condensates at synapses!
We show that the length of CaMKII plays a key role in determining the shape and organization of condensates.

Celebrating our 100th preprint on bioRxiv
Posting preprints has been transformative for me and how we communicate our work. Thanks bioRxiv (and arXiv and ChemRxiv etc) and all who make it possible π
03.04.2025 03:27 β π 65 π 3 π¬ 3 π 1I am hiring PhD students and Postdocs to join me in beautiful Copenhagen. Together, we will develop data science methods to improve epidemic preparedness.
Copenhagen is amazing, salary is good, we have plenty of funding, and a great community.

Some very clever and interesting membrane biophysicists (and also me) are doing a little webinar on... well, membrane biophysics of today and tomorrow.
Check it out if you have time!

Table of Contents figure showing the CALVADOS-RNA model and a snapshot from a mixed protein-RNA condensate
CALVADOS-RNA is now published
doi.org/10.1021/acs....
This is a simple model for flexible RNA that complements and works with the CALVADOS protein model. Work led by Ikki Yasuda who visited us from Keio University.
Try it yourself using our latest code for CALVADOS
