news

let's keep the good news coming! 🥳

Aug, 2024 Hung gave a talk at ACS ‘24 Fall, Denver CO. It was nice to catch up with old friends & colleagues, and meet many new potential collaborators.
Aug, 2024 Dibya joins us as the second postdoc in the lab :tada: Welcome! Looking forward to working with you!
Jun, 2024 Check out our new preprint on BioRxiv, which is a collaborative effort with the Trcek’s and other labs. We showed that mRNA retains most of its structure inside germ granule, and that RNA-RNA homotypic interactions are limited, and are mostly formed by scattered intermolecular base pairing.
Apr, 2024 The first undergrad joins the lab, woohoo. :tada: Welcome, Neth!
Apr, 2024 Two manuscripts have been accepted to J. Phys. Chem. Lett. and J. Chem. Theory Comput.. Congratulations!
Dec, 2023 Delighted to welcome TWO new members joining the lab :tada: Hiranmay (who will join us as the first ever postdoc) and Samia (as a new grad student)! Cannot wait for all the science coming out of them!
Dec, 2023 Check out our new preprint on BioRxiv about salt dependence of the self-association propensity of CAG repeats!
Oct, 2023 Super excited to welcome Peter, the very first grad student, joining the lab! :tada: Looking forward to working with you!
Oct, 2023 Check out the preprint from Thirumalai’s lab (with our small contributions) about DNA modeling in the presence of ions bioRxiv!
Aug, 2023 Hung got invited to give a talk at the Genome, Environment and Microbiome (GEM) Community of Excellence Work-in-Progress in the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, UB.
Aug, 2023 The BioSim lab officially starts at UB! :smile: :tada: We have multiple open positions! Prospective students and postdocs please contact Hung.
Jun, 2023 Our recent work has been accepted and now appears on PNAS! We establish a link between structures & thermodynamics of monomeric RNAs and their propensity to undergo phase separation & aggregation.
May, 2023 Hung gives talk at multiple universities in Vietnam :vietnam:! Excited to discuss science with colleagues and students there!
Apr, 2023 Check out our work of IDP on bioRxiv! Also, try out the code to run simulations using OpenMM with GPU acceleration.
Mar, 2023 Hung has been offered a tenure-track Assistant Professor position in the Department of Chemistry - UB! Excited to start the new lab Fall ‘23! :blue_heart: :bison:
