Designing the molecular future [PDF]
Journal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design, 2011 Approximately 25 years ago the first computer applications were conceived for the purpose of automated 'de novo' drug design, prominent pioneering tools being ALADDIN, CAVEAT, GENOA, and DYLOMMS. Many of these early concepts were enabled by innovative techniques for ligand-receptor interaction modeling like GRID, MCSS, DOCK, and CoMFA, which still ...

Designing Postdigital Futures: Which Designs? Whose Futures?
Postdigital Science and Education, 2023 Designing technology for education is never only a problem-solving practice. It is always already about creating spaces for inherently political and affective sociotechnical future relations. These can point towards ‘bigfutures’, i.e. radical ruptures and epochal change, or ‘little futures’, emergent processes in mundane, everyday practices.

Designer Roots for Future Crops [PDF]
Trends in Plant Science, 2018 Despite the importance of roots, they have largely been ignored by modern crop research and breeding. We discuss important progress in crop root research and highlight how the context-dependent optimisation of below- and above-ground plant components provides opportunities to improve future crops in the face of increasing environmental fluctuations.
