Virtual Cells in the era of AI
Creating virtual cells has long been a goal of the computational research community that unfortunately remains unachieved given the daunting complexity and scale of cellular biology. Nevertheless, recent advances in AI, computing power, lab automation, and high-throughput cellular profiling provide new opportunities for reaching this goal. I will briefly review the current state of AI-powered virtual cells, then present a vision for developing and evaluating virtual cells that leverages these advances. I will argue that, in order to be a useful tool to discover novel biology, virtual cells must accurately predict the functional response of a cell to perturbative interventions and explain how the predicted response is a consequence of modifications to key biomolecular interactions. I will compare and contrast with traditional mechanistic modeling approaches, and highlight potential research directions aimed at bringing the benefits of these approaches closer together.

Wilkes Center Speaker Series: Ben Bromley, Dust as a Solar Shield
Ben Bromley is a theoretical and computational astrophysicist in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Utah.
Astrophysical dust is remarkably efficient at modifying starlight. Even in small quantities, dust can reflect and absorb enough light to alter a star’s observed spectrum, an effect far greater, per unit mass, than that of planets. Building on this idea, space-borne dust placed between Earth and the Sun could block a small fraction of sunlight, potentially slowing current global warming trends and averting climate tipping points. In this talk, we will examine the nature and amount of dust needed to influence Earth’s climate, along with several strategies for deploying it as a solar shield. We will also consider the technological challenges, potential risks, and the role such a temporary, space-based intervention could play alongside long-term solutions to climate change.

Selectivity by the Clock
by Long Luo, University of Utah
Abstract: Controlling reaction selectivity is a central challenge in chemistry. Conventional strategies rely on designing chemical reagents or catalysts that alter the kinetics of competing pathways to dictate the outcome. In this talk, I will present an alternative approach: using time as a control parameter. Specifically, we harness alternating current electrolysis to temporally modulate the redox environment and direct selectivity in electroorganic synthesis. By tuning the frequency, key reaction steps can be synchronized such that the product distribution shifts from thermodynamic to kinetic control. This temporal strategy is broadly compatible with both homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. Importantly, the optimal frequency is dictated by the intrinsic timescale of the selectivity-determining step, offering a…

In Situ Electrochemical Methods of Metal Halide Perovskites for (Opto)Electronics
by Erin Ratcliff, Georgia Tech
Abstract: Metal halide perovskites are an exciting class of printable semiconductor materials with applications in solar, photo and X-ray detectors, LEDs, lasers, and photoelectrochemical systems. Central to technology adaptation is resolving underlying mechanisms of degradation that arise from near-band-edge defects within the perovskite crystal lattice. This talk will discuss the evolution of (spectro)electrochemistry-based measurement science approaches to quantify the distribution and energetics of donor and acceptor defects in prototypical perovskite solar cell materials and at buried charge selective interlayers (i.e. hole transport layers). Connections to device performance, benchmarked with time-resolved photoluminescence measurements, will…

Photogenerated Molecular Spin Qubits, Spin Polarization, and Relaxation
by Martin Kirk, University of New Mexico
Abstract: Excited state interactions in spin containing Donor-Acceptor and Donor-Bridge-Acceptor systems are important for understanding the impact of electronic coupling (Hab) in molecular electronics and how magnetic exchange interactions affect excited state processes. Our efforts have focused on determining excited state contributions to molecular bridge mediated electronic coupling, understanding how open-shell excited state singlet configurations promote long-range electron correlation, and developing new platforms for spin control of excited state dynamics in photoexcited donor-acceptor molecules. These new systems are also relevant to the emerging molecular quantum information science field, allowing for the optical generation and manipulation of…

Unraveling the functional mechanisms and design principles of photoactive biomolecular systems through multiscale simulations by Ruibin Liang, Texas Tech University
Abstract: Photochemical reactions change electronic states during chemical transformations. A fundamental understanding of how they interact with proteins is essential for advances in biological and biomedical sciences. However, two central and fundamental questions remain elusive: (1) how does the protein environment modulate the pathway, dynamics, and quantum yields of the non-adiabatic reactions of the chromophores? (2) how do the non-adiabatic reactions induce structural changes in the protein? Molecular simulation is indispensable to answering these questions because it can resolve the energetics and kinetics of chemical reactions at atomic-level detail, which is often beyond the limit of current exp…
