What is a protein? Intro to Biochemistry
My PhD is in macromolecular and structural biochemistry. More specifically I study the dynamics of proteins using X-ray crystallography. Before I can start any conversation about my research, I first ask,

X-ray crystallography photography: PEG Rose
Crystal image #004 - this image is actually precipitation of a poly-ethylene glycol (PEG). PEG itself is a precipitant, which facilitates crystal formation. The concept behind crystallization can be visualized

AHHH-moebas! Sex and Microscopes
Several gene homologs for meiosis were recently discovered in amoebazoans. This suggests that machinery for sexual reproduction evolved long before the advent of multicellular life forms. source: original

X-Ray Crystallography
I find science art fascinating. As an X-ray crystallographer, I have access to the esoteric world of protein dynamics. I like to take pictures of the crystals I grow. You can follow me on instagram
