About the Lab

Proteins are fundamental to the molecular machinery of life: they are nature's freight trains, construction cranes, and chemical factories. But the basic principles of this machinery are poorly understood. By developing new algorithms that combine machine learning, molecular simulation, and chemical physics, we seek to unpack fundamental protein biochemistry and help develop new therapeutics.

Lab Values

• We are curious. Science is about learning, not knowing. We are always looking for new ways of thinking, and are comfortable showing that we don't understand everything.
• We are open. Science is a team sport. To help out teammates, we take pains to share our science freely amongst the scientific community and with the world.
• We are caring. Doing good science requires delving deep into the unknown: an experience both exciting, and terrifying. On our journey, we celebrate each other's achievements and support each other through setbacks.
• We are inclusive. We actively strive to make science a place where everyone thrives, no matter their background and identity. We resist oppression of any kind, including but not limited to sexism, classism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism and xenophobia. Everyone is welcome and celebrated here.
