This is quite a story: the US employed every strongarm tactic available, including personal threats against delegates and their families, to derail an agreement on reducing shipping emissions that was almost finalized. on.ft.com/47lq3dZ

Just because this came up a few times recently
If you need to compare two or more ensembles (like RMSD for structures) we developed algorithms and code (ENCORE) to do just that

After two chaotic years, this Dutch anti-populist's message of decency, stability and trust is suddenly resonating with voters.

Love those animals in Terraforming Mars.
Also got Penguins later on, finishing with a whopping 27 points in animals alone!
For a clear win: 130 - 103 - 98.

I am fascinated by how viruses evolve - and not just since #SARSCoV2 has shown us at the global stage how consequential virus evolution can be for us.
In my new story in @science.org I got to explore how researchers are probing deeper into the past with old RNA virus genome.
So a 🧪 thread…

A slide with the following text: Creation of poctographic tools for the transmission of complex ideas. HOW TO DEPICT PIE? By Océane Juvin
We had a full day of very inspiring talks in our second workshop of the PIE consortium. PIE stands for Protein Interaction Evolution. Not all talks were scientific. Communication is an important aspect of science, especially multidisciplinary science. #cdp #ulille #universitedelille #france2030

Excited to share our new preprint “Unified Sampling and Ranking for Protein Docking with DFMDock” by PhD candidate Lee-Shin Chu and Post-Doc Sudeep Sarma! We designed a diffusion docking model that samples rigid-body conformations by predicting forces and ranks poses using predicted energies.

Located only 8,000 light years away, the Wizard nebula, featured here, surrounds developing open star cluster NGC 7380. Visually, the interplay of stars, gas, and dust has created a shape that appears to some like a fictional medieval sorcerer. The active star-forming region spans 100 about light years, making it appear larger than the angular extent of the Moon. The Wizard Nebula can be located with a small telescope toward the constellation of the King of Aethiopia (Cepheus). Although the nebula may last only a few million years, some of the stars being formed may outlive our Sun.
