I’m very honored to be selected for the 2026 Early Career Award from the Biophysical Society’s Theory & Computation Subgroup.
I want to thank the colleagues who nominated and supported me, as well as the committee for this recognition.
AI-driven molecular simulations show that catch-bonds in proteins activate almost immediately when force is applied, offering new insights for biomaterial and drug design under mechanical stress. doi.org/g93fwq
Very nice work from my colleague here at Auburn.

🦠 Our new work just got published in Science Advances! Why Staphylococcus aureus clings so hard to skin.
👉 SdrD–Desmoglein-1 = the strongest protein bond ever measured — stronger than superglue!
🔗 Calcium (Ca²⁺) makes it even tougher.
Read: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Probably the most comprehensive work I’ve ever been part of is now out in Science Advances! 🚀
We uncovered how Staphylococcus aureus sticks to human skin with record-breaking strength — and how calcium is the key regulator.

Our newest paper is out!
My friend and colleague, Dr. Michael Gramlich, got some cool results published this week. www.eurekalert.org/news-release...
Proud to have presented our latest work at #BPS2025 today! Great discussions on mechanostability, bacterial adhesion, and molecular biophysics. Exciting times for our research! @biophysicalsoc.bsky.social
Always exciting to hear from @eriklindahl.bsky.social #BPS2025 @biophysicalsoc.bsky.social
Come by my poster B489 this afternoon or come see my talk at 4pm at room 515B and hear all about staph adhesins and their impact in antibiotic resistance 😌 @biophysicalsoc.bsky.social @rcbernardi.bsky.social #BPS2025
Huge success for #VMD2 on Monday! This Tuesday at #BPS2025, we’re showing how VMD2 & NAMD3 power our mechanobiology research. Dont miss: @priscila-gomes.bsky.social Molecular Dynamics Platform (4PM, Rm 515B); Me: Multiscale Biophysical Modeling Workshop (8:45PM, Rm 515A)
@biophysicalsoc.bsky.social
Come see my poster B-28 around 3pm at the JUST-B poster session! Excited to chat about mechanobiology, MD simulations and bacterial resistance ✌🏻 @biophysicalsoc.bsky.social

Wanna try #VMD2 ? Look for these guys at the poster session this afternoon! They will be around B511 showing off the new cool features of VMD 2.0 @biophysicalsoc.bsky.social #BPS2025 🫶🏻✌🏻 @rcbernardi.bsky.social @diegoenry.bsky.social
Curious about #VMD2 ? Stop by Diego’s poster B511 this afternoon and hear all about the new cool features in molecular visualization with the new VMD 2.0!! @biophysicalsoc.bsky.social #BPS2025
VMD 2.0 at @biophysicalsoc.bsky.social 2025.
In Los Angeles? Stop by Diego Enry Barreto Gomes’ poster (B511) today to chat about new VMD 2.0 features! Huge thanks to Shao-Chian Chen, John Stone, Barry Isralewitz, Emad Tajkhorshid, and NIH/NSF for making this possible! 🔬✨ #VMD2 #BPS2025
Hello. We already have test versions for Mac and Windows. We just did not publish them yet as they were not tested as much as we have been testing the LINUX builds. We should release for Mac and windows within the next month or two.
🚀 First Bluesky Post! 🎉 VMD 2.0 Alpha is here! Released today at BPS 2025, this is the biggest update in 30 years—new UI, real-time ray tracing, fast surfaces, UHD & touchscreen support. Monthly updates coming in 2025! Try it now! #VMD #BPS2025 #MolecularVisualization
