This was a great collaboration with Sabina Caneva that actually started on twitter 😁
We built dynamic DNA nanopores 🧬 that can selectively achieve defined open&closed states reversibly, in a lipid membrane 🤯!
Also thx a lot to cees dekker & Jungmann Lab!
📢Postdoc position opening! : Our group is looking for a postdoc to work on the interaction of giant lipid vesicles with chemotactic colloids, in collaboration with Andela Saric.
Please, share and retweet!

Great knows great. Yes, this is *the* David R. Liu. He had developed a neural network model of visual attention, which (unknown to him) was similar to something Hinton was working on. He was only 16 at the time. Did they meet? I don’t know yet.
Some exciting news about my team Nature Communications , we're growing and are looking for a synthetic biologist/metabolic engineer:

T'was a labor of love. Had so much fun working on this with Dr. Mason McNair (he/him). We'll keep it updated regularly. Please report bugs or dead links if you find any!
We are looking for two #postdocs to join us: 1) European Research Council (ERC) funded position in the context of RNA origami, cryoEM, synthetic cells, directed evolution; 2) A position in the excellence cluster 3D Matter Made to Order at the interface of chemistry & biology. Please share and get in touch!
