Two WashU faculty honored by biochemistry group
Rohit Pappu was honored by the ASBMB
Two faculty members at Washington University in St. Louis, Benjamin Garcia and Rohit V. Pappu, have received annual awards from the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.
Pappu will receive the ASBMB DeLano Award for Computational Biosciences. This award is given to a scientist for accessible and innovative developments or applications of computation to enhance research in the life sciences at the molecular or cellular level. Pappu is a professor of biomedical engineering at the McKelvey School of Engineering and director of the Center for Biomolecular Condensates at WashU. The Pappu lab explores the biophysical principles underlying the form, function and phase behaviors of intrinsically disordered and multivalent proteins and connects these to understand how cellular matter is organized in space and time.
