Microbial #fermentation shapes chocolate flavor by shifting pH and heat in cocoa beans. Some species even drive fine flavors. It’s amazing how much science hides in everyday food and even more in our favorites! #science #microbiology #microbes #scicomm www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Reflections always catch my eye. I couldn’t resist clicking this, feels like the reflection is alive, moving, merging two architecture into one piece of art. Side by side, yet connected through glass #photography #photooftheday #architecture #cityscape #reflection #urbanphotography #glass #art

Poetry gives our mind the freedom to wander and to form connections that could be totally new through associative creativity. An interesting way to boost mental flexibility. #poetry #neuroscience #creativethinking #cognition #scicomm #research #psychology #neuroplasticity #mind #brainhealth

Yellow carries a bright fresh energy especially in flowers as if they're trying to say something while blooming in joy #alphabetchallenge #photography #WeekYforYellow #flowerphotography #colorphotography #mobilephotography #blueskyphotographers

A good summary of shifts in science publishing especially with AI in the picture to reflect how trust, openness & technology are changing the way science is judged and perceived. #AI #science #peereview #publishing #openai #chatgpt #sciencejournals #education #research

Reality was more beautiful than the pictures. Tried to capture yesterday’s evening through the window. Stood there for a while watching the sky changing colors with time✨️ #naturephotography #sunset #skyphotography #goldenhour #silhouette #photography #colors #gradient

On a hike, saw twisty spiral vines wrapped tightly around a tree for support & survival As a structural biologist, it reminded me of #proteinstructures & how structures relate to functions both at microscopic & macroscopic level #photography #structuralbiology #science #scicomm #thigmotropism

Most fungi can’t survive human body heat but rising temperatures may help them adapt, making even harmless fungi capable of causing infections. Didn’t think of these subtle yet important aspects of #climatechange pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC... #science #scicomm #microbe #fungi

The sunshine so far yet so close on water, it glows even more making its space through the sky to reach us & to fill us with warmth and peace✨️ #photography #sunrise #phonephotograohy #sky #photooftheday #naturephotography #travelphotography #landscapephotography #sunshine #poetry

Recycled ≠ Recyclable Just because it can be recycled doesn't mean it will or was. Misusing these terms makes it harder for consumers to make clear, sustainable choices. 👇 www.yahoo.com/news/coca-co... #sustainability #science #scicomm #environment

The eye of a crystallographer often captures the symmetry in nature #crystallography #structuralbiology #science #photography #symmetry #nature

Saw a leaf patterned like an art flowing naturally drawn by something small that had lived inside A larva, maybe, searching food between the walls.. And I wondered how many such stories go unseen under the surface of things.. #nature #photography #sciart #photoart #poetry #art

Misinformation spreads fast because it’s often wrapped in emotional, repetitive, and personal narrative even when it’s wrong. That might make it more dangerous than just ignorance #scicomm #science #health

I think I have an obsession with the sky and the clouds it carries. I often find myself just staring at them, wondering how they can be so dynamic, so beautiful, and so full of personality. #home #clouds #dc #nature #photography #sunset #skyphotography

Functional proteins are created just from text instructions. Could open up possibilities in medicine, material, food & more. But novelty comes with unexpected behaviors, lack of evolutionary safeguards & new safety challenges. www.nature.com/articles/d41... #AI #structuralbiology #scicomm

These little dandelions always grab my attention, tiny but intricate! Recently learned a fun fact about them that their design inspired flying microfliers in science #photography #nature #science #dandelions #hike

For clear thinking, cultivate passionate indifference. Buddhists call it non-attachment. We all have hopes, desires and ambitions. Non-attachment means acknowledging them, accepting them, and then not inserting them into a process that has nothing to do with you. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/n...

Structural biology is in an era of dynamics & assemblies but turning raw experimental data into atomic models at scale remains challenging. @minhuanli.bsky.social and I present ROCKET🚀: an AlphaFold augmentation that integrates crystallographic and cryoEM/ET data with room for more! 1/14.

Happy World Protein Day! ✨ Proteins drive everything from cell function to scientific innovation. They aren’t just essential for survival, they’re shaping the future of medicine, technology, and sustainability! #WorldProteinDay #Scicomm #gfi

ABC of Proteins!🙂An idea of introducing protein alphabets in biology textbooks sounds fun and relevant! Proteins adopt a diversity of shapes to execute their functions.
