Associate Professor at MIT Chemistry; Enthusiastic about chromatin, biophysics, molecular dynamics, and AI.
Our collaborative paper with
@XuhuiHuangChem
is now published in Biophy J (shorturl.at/gxlTs). I learned a lot about kinetic modeling via this collaboration, and it can be quite illuminating for understanding chromatin folding!
