Join the Duke Center for Quantitative Biodesign next Friday, February 16, 2024 at 3:00 pm in Wilkinson 021. Our guest speaker, Dr. Alex Holehouse, is an Assistant Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics at Washington University in St. Louis where he will be discussing “Mapping from sequence to function in intrinsically disordered regions.”
The Holehouse Lab studies how biological function is encoded into intrinsically disordered proteins and how this goes wrong in disease. They use a combination of physics-based models, bioinformatics, deep learning, and quantitative cell biology.
