Hi everyone! Follow us on Bluesky @ branniganlab.bsky.social for the latest posts 😄
🎉Congratulations to @JahmalEnnis on his first first-author paper, out now in @J_Phys_Chem !
pubs.acs.org/jpcbfk/article/…
A new preprint is out by our PhD student, Lindsey Riggs! We reveal a hidden interaction network in an IDP that connects a mutation site to distant regions through transient tertiary interactions. Beneath the disorder lies an underlying network! Read here: chemrxiv.org/doi/full/10.264…
🏆 Results from the CCIB Research Showcase! Jesse Sandberg and Jahmal Ennis tied for 2nd in the Senior PhD division, Nivedha took 1st and Johannah Stevenson 3rd in the MS division, and Lindsey Riggs was a finalist in the Intermediate PhD division. Very proud of this crew 🎉
🏅 Congratulations to the Brannigan Lab PhD students on the Graduate School Student Leadership Award — and to Connor Pitman on Distinguished Alumni! They were nominated as a group for building workshops, shaping C4L training, and supporting the CCIB grad community. 🎉
🏮 Lab and lanterns! We finally got to celebrate Jahmal Ennis and his Chateaubriand Fellowship the right way — glowing sculptures, carnival games, and one very proud lab. Félicitations, @JahmalEnnis ! 🎉🇫🇷
We are so proud of @JahmalEnnis for receiving the Chateaubriand Fellowship! 🇫🇷🎉 He will spend 5 months in France working with Dr. Paulo Cesar Telles de Souza on computational modeling of gold nanoparticles. Congratulations, Jahmal! 🥳 Read about it here: ccib.camden.rutgers.edu/ccib…
The Brannigan Lab held our annual cocktail contest, and this year’s theme was Animal-Inspired Cocktails! Drinks were inspired by animals ranging from fish and tigers to moles and flies! Congratulations to Jesse, whose fly-inspired passion fruit cocktail took the top prize!🥂🥳🥇
Thinking about simulating gold nanoparticles? Read our latest preprint authored by our PhD student, @JahmalEnnis, here! 😄chemrxiv.org/doi/full/10.264…
Last week, we celebrated the graduation of two students from the lab, and we couldn’t be prouder! 🎉Congratulations Ryan and Dr. Pitman!!! We know you are both going to accomplish amazing things, and we can’t wait to see what’s next for you both!! 👏🎓😄
A huge congratulations to Dr. Pitman, who successfully defended his PhD dissertation, "Elucidating the role of non-aliphatic residues and hydrophobic modularity in proteins"! 🎉🎓😁 xitter.cf/BranniganLab/status/20…
He also spent much of his PhD working on webtool development for the blobulator (blobulator.branniganlab.org) - which segments protein sequences by contiguous hydrophobicity. Check it out! xitter.cf/BranniganLab/status/20…
We are incredibly proud of you, Connor, and we will miss you very much! Best of luck to you and your future endeavors ❤️🥹👏🎓🥳 xitter.cf/BranniganLab/status/20…
In addition to two great talks by our lab at the BPS conference, our PhD students showed off their wonderful posters! Thank you, @RutgersCCIB, for giving us the opportunity to present our research!
Regina presented on using DNA to attach gold nanoparticles to produce light-sensitive nanotechnology!
