Protein dynamics was the first research to enchant me >10yrs ago, but I left in PhD bc I couldn't find big experimental data to evaluate models.

Today w @ginaelnesr.bsky.social, I'm thrilled to share the big dynamics data I've been dreaming of, and the mdl we trained w them: Dyna-1.

Cool stuff from our collaboration with @mxhend.bsky.social: the fold of tau filaments matters for seeding in primary cultures & in live mice: the AD fold is more seeding efficient than non-AD folds! But that's not all: phosphorylation of the fuzzy coat matters too. 🤩
