“Is the Functional Response of a Receptor Determined by the Thermodynamics of Ligand Binding?”

Our answer: Yes, it is!
And we can use it to predict ligand efficacy.

I find this remarkable:

The Dresden Codex, one of the few surviving Mayan manuscripts, contains tables that give highly accurate timings of solar eclipses over more than 700 years, from 350 CE to the 12 century. 🧪🔭

While Campus Galli in Meßkirch, Germany aims to eventually build a monumental stone abbey using only the methods available in the 9th century, a temporary wooden church fulfills its role for now — just as early medieval monasteries once began.

Construction of the new central station marks one of Stuttgart's most far-reaching transformations. The old terminus station is turned into a through station with all tracks underground, allowing for major urban development on the freed surface.

Yesterday, six years after graduating, I gave a career talk for my PhD supervisor Gerhard Hummer's department.

Joining their group retreat at the famous Harnack House in Berlin came with so much nostalgia and joyous reunions, but also cutting-edge science, new friends, and fabulous autumn weather!

My wife has volunteered at a local food bank for years and confirms what many of you have probably heard: in this case, straight cash is a good donation if you can do it.

The food banks have better access and buying power than individuals do, and can try to address item imbalances as they see them.

The #Heuneburg was one of the most important Celtic centers in Central Europe until it was abandoned after a devastating fire in the 5th century BC.

Today, an open air museum shows reconstructions of some of the houses and of parts of the fortification.

📢 New preprint:
Experiment-guided AlphaFold3 resolves accurate protein ensembles.
doi.org/10.1101/2025...

AlphaFold3 is incredible, but has crucial limitations: it typically collapses to a single conformation, ignoring the inherent dynamics of proteins. And it can be wrong. Here's a solution. 🧵👇

wikipedia's data shows that AI is siphoning traffic away from the site, which is a danger to its sustainability. ironically Wikipedia is more important than ever to users who want reliable information instead of slop, and to AI companies that need it for training data www.404media.co/wikipedia-sa...

In the early days of quantum chemistry, before we had computers to calculate the shapes of electron orbitals, one man invented a mechanical machine that simulated their shapes. My latest column for @chemistryworld.com

The simple machine that visualised atomic orbitals
In 1931, Harvey Elliott White developed a device that traced out the shapes of electron clouds by approximating solutions to the Schrödinger equation
