Lead researcher on the kinesin neck simulation project
Kinesin is the two-footed motor that hauls cargo through cells by walking along filaments called microtubules. The 'neck' segment that coordinates each step has resisted direct imaging for decades, so researchers simulated it atom-by-atom on Japan's Fugaku supercomputer — the system that was the world's fastest from 2020 to 2022.
