On April 20, 2022, Prof. Zhou presented a seminar at Peking University via Zoom, titled “Thermodynamic and Dynamic Properties of Phase-Separated Biomolecular Condensates”.
The paper, published in the Sept 24, 2019 issue of PNAS, shows that all macromolecular regulators of phase separation fall into three archetypical classes.
Prof. Zhou took the Romberg Guest Professorship at the University of Heidelberg in the first half of 2018. On Jan 24, he gave the inauguration lecture, titled “Electrostatics in Protein Structure and Action”.
Prof. Zhou takes up an endowed chair position at UIC starting in August 2017, with joint appointments in the Department of Chemistry and the Department of Physics.
