Trade, Borrow, or Steal: Understanding the Acquisition of Metabolism with the Tools of Ecology, Mathematics, and Chemistry Although biologists often think of organismal metabolism as pre-determined by a species' DNA,

The Activation of Dioxygen with Biomimetic Iron Complexes: Structures, Spectroscopy, Intermediates, and Mechanis Small molecule activation by transition metal centers is at the heart of chemistry and biology. Some of

Exploiting new electrochemistry and photochemistry: from bipolar hydrogenation to two-photon absorption Exploring renewable carbon and energy resources is essential for our sustainable development. Biomass, as the most abundant renewable carbon

Ageing’s culprit - inflammasomes as supramolecular complexes and biomolecular condensates My talk will focus on structures and functions of the fascinating system of inflammasomes, which are cytosolic supramolecular complexes that

Cryo-EM, AI and MD simulations reveal the molecular basis of laminin polymer turnover and its defects associated with human disease. Basement membranes are elastic biopolymers that form a sheet-like lattice

How do disordered molecular interactions promote order in biology? Biological compartmentalization is essential for life. While many compartments within a cell are bound by a lipid membrane, there are also

Deconstructing Macromolecules to Make Better Materials Polymers are arguably the most important materials on Earth. Despite a century of study, however, much remains unknown about how the molecular-scale features of
