Seen in today's Nature Newsletter: a mushroom in the wild playing keyboard: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbP2... One of the most heartwarming things I've seen in recent weeks.

DeepMind will fund CASP for a year. Very nice to hear. (not paying Stat $30 a month, but you can read the first bit). www.statnews.com/2025/07/21/c...

Speak up to prevent a major loss for the field. CASP, which helped shaping structural biology including AlphaFold is on the verge of shutting down. NIH funding has lapsed, UC Davis support ends and the core team is being let go. Painfully shortsighted.

We will be hosting a mirror site of the CASP data and workflows at @sib.swiss. Operating a redundant site with independent funding is a good idea for important scientific infrastructure, independent from the current funding situation in the US.

Open PhD position in my group: protein bioinformatics and protein-lipid interactions. Competences required: experience with protein bioinformatics, good programing skills, machine learning, interest for beautiful protein structures! Deadline: Aug 1st 2025. Official info => tinyurl.com/LTPbioinfo

I'm happy to announce that our latest work about PROTAC-mediated complexes, AlphaFold and small interfaces is now published in Bioinformatics Advances ! Read the full story here : academic.oup.com/bioinformati...

@elisafrezza.bsky.social is visiting us today and gave a great seminar at @lbmcinlyon.bsky.social about RNA Modelling. Thanks Elisa, such a pleasure to have you here !

I'm very proud to have collaborated to this work led by Vincent Chaptal @MMSB lab : www.nature.com/articles/s41...
