Four new research projects led by scientists at @ipptpan have received funding from the @NCN_PL National Science Centre in the latest #OPUS and #SONATA call results.
The following projects have been selected for funding:
🔹 OPUS | Mohsen Rezaee Hajidehi - The origin and role of plastic deformation accompanying martensitic transformation in NiTi shape memory alloys
🔹OPUS | Aneta Ustrzycka - Helium-induced embrittlement in nuclear fusion using quantum and molecular dynamics methods
🔹OPUS | Adolfo Poma - Molecular Mechanisms Driving the Transition of Protein Condensates into Amyloid Fibrils: Implications for Neurodegenerative Disease
🔹SONATA | Karol Golasiński - Analysis of the elastocaloric effect in superelastic Ni-free Ti-based alloys for potential applications in innovative heating and cooling systems
Congratulations to all project leaders! We wish you every success in your research endeavours.

Si volver al Perú no está entre tus prioridades nos gustaría saber por qué y que podemos hacer para que esto cambie. Ayúdanos llenando esta encuesta sobre repatriación de investigadores en STEM! Última semana!
🇵🇪 El X% de investigadores peruanos STEM en el extranjero quiere contribuir con el Perú, incluso sin retornar. Pero necesitamos más respuestas antes del cierre este 22/05 para confirmarlo. Participa forms.gle/KVU6YAbb4vMdPFpt5 El Perú necesita escuchar a su comunidad científica.

Nueva sesión del Journal Club de Bioinformática. Analizaremos cómo GoMartini 3 y las simulaciones coarse-grained permiten estudiar cambios conformacionales en grandes ensamblajes proteicos, incluyendo la proteína Spike del SARS-CoV-2. 28 de mayo, 10:00 hrs (Perú), modalidad virtual.
[Lab news] Great work, Gustavo (@GustavoOlivos9)!
And many thanks to our #cryoEM collaborator Prof. Panagiotis Kastritis (@3Dstructure) 👏 from @UniHalle 🇩🇪 for hosting this Erasmus+ internship.
We are excited to share the highlights of MSc. Gustavo Olivos Ramirez’s recent #Erasmus+ training mobility at The Martin Luther University of Halle-Wittenberg (Germany).
Gustavo joined the Laboratory of Integrative Structural Biochemistry, led by Prof. Panagiotis Kastritis at the Biozentrum of the Institute of Biochemistry and Biotechnology. 🔬
During the internship, Gustavo gained experience in integrative structural biology, particularly in cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) workflows and their connection with computational modelling of protein complexes. 🧬
He received intensive training in cryo-EM data processing using the CryoSPARC software, including:
🔹 image processing,
🔹 3D reconstruction,
🔹 model-to-map interpretation,
🔹 cryo-EM map quality assessment.
This was especially useful for understanding how experimental cryo-EM data can be integrated with multiscale molecular dynamics simulations, the main focus of his PhD research. 💻
As part of this training experience, he worked with the fatty acid synthase complex from Chaetomium thermophilum, a megadalton-scale biomolecular assembly of approximately 2.6 MDa. This is the largest molecular system simulated to date using our GoMartini approach!
Congratulations to Gustavo for this successful international collaboration! 👏
Financed by the European Union. This mobility was supported by the Erasmus+ program.

Pleased to share that our latest work from IPPT PAN has been highlighted on @EurekAlert ! 🔬
In this study, the team led by Adolfo Poma @PomaResearch investigates how antibodies respond to mechanical forces - going beyond binding affinity to understand how these molecules behave under stress. This perspective opens new opportunities for designing #novel therapies 🧬 by integrating biochemical and mechanical insights.
