Hi! Nice to meet you~
Have you noticed my avatar? It features Yakou, from a Japanese anime called Mononoke. Yakou’s job is to exorcise youkai (spirits) from the world. He wields a sword capable of slaying these spirits, but to use it, he must first uncover three key elements of the opponent: their 'form (形)'， 'truth (真)'， and 'reason (理)'. Only then can the sword be drawn, and the spirit vanquished.
Similarly, in my world, I wield a weapon called Biophysics, which helps me to explore the 'form', 'truth', and 'reason' of bio-spirits.
About Yumeng:
Hi! I am Yumeng Zhang, a computational, biophysical, chemist :D. I currently work as a postdoc associate at Prof. Zhang’s Lab. I am tring to use machine-learning and Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to understand the large scale biomolecular activities (like liquid-liquid phase separation.)
I had my Ph.D. degree from University of Massachusetts Amherst on 2024 Feb. I was a grad student in Prof. Chen’s lab. There, I developed multi-scale enhanced sampling methods and applying them to study protein dynamics.
I am now walking on the academic path towards science.
