Just updated my hikemap with our Ardennes hikes!🗺️🥾
One of the perks of living in Belgium: epic trails basically in your backyard 🇧🇪🌳

There are a couple of cool two-day hikes here as well which were (rather painful😅) training sessions for our Norway adventure 🇳🇴🏔️

Such a pleasure to define HDX-MS states directly in VS code!

Here in sunny Belgium the tomatos are doing really well this year - they are facing south on the balcony and I invested in some serious pottery

Having some fun with 3DPGA & kingdon (GA library for python) in ipymolstar!

Geometric Algebra feels like magic 🪄; I don't understand it but surely its very powerful 💪

Here's a neat way to share you protein-annotated data 🚀🧪

Upload your .csv with residue/value data, select data column, colormap and norm to interactively color your protein model.

Then, add title/description and click the button to open a shareable view with url-encoded data and settings.

I've created this #solara app where you can drag & drop your #alphafold3 .zip file and switch between chain color or plddt colors. Includes 'spin' and theme toggle for maximal viewing pleasure. The screenshot below shows the elusive SecA2/SecB4 complex.

Nice! I've updated the structure reference in our HDX-MS database, here it is rendered in ipymolstar (beta) and colored by HDX-MS Gibbs free energy (blue = rigid, yellow = more flexible)
