Pleased to share the final version of this behemoth of a paper, now finally published. I guess I can retire now?

More functional data, many thousands of words removed, and a few other updates from last year's preprint.

C'est comme ça chez nous depuis longtemps... En tant que personnel hébergé une technique qui marche c'est d'acheter l'ordinateur avec la tutelle A et de livrer à la tutelle B. Comme ça la DSI de A ne voit jamais l'ordi et la DSI de B ne sait pas qu'il existe.

I think we're currently in the "radium skin cream" phase with AI.
When we discovered radioactivity, people tried to cram into everything, and it didn't end well.
AI is a discovery at least as important as radioactivity, and at least as dangerous.

We resolved the molecular architecture of a condensate—inside cells. 🤯 By combining in situ cryoET with multiscale simulations, we show how a single point mutation modifies molecular interactions, shifts the condensate’s material properties, and alters its biological function. Preprint 👇
