Physical models reveal indirect reader protein interactions that facilitate epigenetic crosstalk | PNAS The spatial organization of chromatin is governed by epigenetic factors, including epigenetic marks and the reader proteins that bind them. By dict...

Our recent manuscript โ€œPhysical models reveal indirect reader protein interactions that facilitate epigenetic crosstalkโ€ was published in PNAS. Joe Wakim used simulations and machine learning to reveal mechanisms for programming and reprogramming of cell behavior.

Leveraging inhomogeneous binding of incompatible constituents for adaptive copolymer self-assembly Using a polymer field-theoretic model, we present a system containing copolymers and two distinct chemical moieties that bind heterogeneously along the copolymer chains, enabling self-assembly of a ra...

Thomas Habte and I recently published โ€œLeveraging inhomogeneous binding of incompatible constituents for adaptive copolymer self-assemblyโ€ in Soft Matter, predicting a new co-polymer material that can access a range of stable phases without changing polymer sequence.
