For the past few weeks I have been working with my friend and collaborator Maxime at the ILL in Grenoble, France.  We’ve been working on a paper about the effects of fluctuations on proteins.  It’s been really fun being the odd-one-out experimentalist amidst this group of dyed in the wool theorists.

Back in the lab, Dileep and Gabe are making enormous progress on the AFM.  After just a few weeks of working in the lab it seems that they don’t need me at all!
