Our "Roadmap for Condensates in Cell Biology" is now available on arXiv: arxiv.org/abs/2601.03677 🎉 This article summarizes the interdisciplinary weekly discussions we had at our condensate workshop at KITP in the summer of 2025. Feedback is very welcome!
Biomolecular condensates govern essential cellular processes yet elude description by traditional equilibrium models. This roadmap, distilled from structured discussions at a workshop and reflecting t...
...and we're here now, too! Looking forward to post about science and general stuff from now on.
The 3-day SIMPLAIX Workshop 2025 is now officially OPEN! 🎉
We’re kicking off an inspiring event filled with keynotes, discussions and networking opportunities on multiscale computer simulation and #machinelearning over the next few days.

New preprint based on cenp-a nucleosome and coarse grained simulation !
Publication alert: SIRAH-CG MD simulations capture enhanced DNA breathing & multiple free energy minima, revealing key nucleosome dynamics. Thanks to team @sloverde.bsky.social @rutika90.bsky.social

Delighted to share some highlights from SIMPLAIX 2025 @simplaix.bsky.social in Heidelberg, Germany @hitsters.bsky.social . I presented a talk on my current postdoctoral work, focusing on the coarse-grained study of the nucleosome. #SIMPLAIX2025
Noncanonical nucleosomes at the centromere contain the histone variant CENP-A, playing a crucial role in chromosome segregation. CENP-A is highly regulated, including by the centromere protein N (CENP...
The conformational dynamics of the DNA in the nucleosome may play a role in governing gene regulation and accessibility and impact higher-order chromatin struct
