Articles on computational protein design, structural biology and biotech translation.
The 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry marked a turning point: computational protein design and protein structure prediction have become central technologies for modern biotech innovation.
Directed evolution and rational design are often framed as competing paradigms. In practice, strong protein engineering programs combine both.
Cryo-EM, X-ray crystallography, NMR, mass spectrometry and computational modeling form the analytical backbone of structure-informed innovation.
Digital tools have globalized research, but biotech remains place-based: laboratories, specialist talent, universities, clinics and regional networks still matter.
