Enhancing the Protein Stability of an Anticancer VHH‐Fc Heavy Chain Antibody through Computational Modeling and Variant Design

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, a computational pipeline is developed to systematically evaluate the conformational stability, disulfide bond reduction state, and aggregation and degradation tendencies of an anticancer VHH‐Fc fusion antibody. Based on the mechanistic insights, antibody variants with enhanced stability and increased yield are successfully designed. This

I Learn to Diffuse, or Data Alchemy 101: a Mnemonic Manifesto [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
In this manifesto, we put forward the idea of data alchemy as a narrative device to discuss storytelling and transdisciplinarity in visualization. If data is the prima materia of modern science, how does one perform the Great Work? We use text-to-image diffusion-based generative art to develop the concept, and structure our argument in ten propositions,

Durable Muscle Extracellular Matrix Engineered with Adhesive Phenolic Moieties for Effective Skeletal Muscle Regeneration in Muscle Atrophy

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 13, Issue 32, December 27, 2024.
Phenolic adhesive muscle extracellular matrix hydrogels with improved tissue adhesion, mechanical properties, and muscle‐specific cues are developed to treat muscle loss. These hydrogels facilitate muscle regeneration in disuse‐induced muscle atrophy and sarcopenia mouse models by generating enduring muscle‐like microenvironments for rejuvenating ...
