"I really value the collaborative spirit of the Rosetta community. Academia can be a competitive environment, but the Commons stands out as a place where people have history and are genuinely happy to collaborate. I especially enjoy working with trainees and watching them grow as researchers—particularly when they continue to stay engaged in the community."

"I love being part of an incredibly community of really smart people that are changing the world and that have become close friends over the many years I've been part of this community. It's about creating change in an ecosystem to make it sustainable. And while we don't always agree on everything, people listen and it's not about who is right or wrong. It's about the best ideas that move our science and our community forward."

"Protein design feels like the best parts of science fiction coming to life. Getting to build learning programs for some of the brightest, most creative people in science — and watching them take what we deliver and run with it to solve problems that once seemed impossible — never gets old."
Angela Colbert, Ph.D.

"I love how welcoming the Rosetta community is to newcomers. There is a clear desire to develop the next generation of protein scientists and to collaborate to create the best possible science, which is not something you see everywhere."
Hope Woods, Ph.D.

"The Rosetta Commons community brings together some of the leading scientists and developers in protein design and structure prediction, yet remains remarkably welcoming to newcomers. Despite the depth of expertise, there is a strong culture of support, where experienced members actively help others learn how to use and contribute to the latest tools. It’s a truly collaborative environment that values both innovation and mentorship, making it an exceptional community to grow in and be part of."

"I love the people! The students I have had the opportunity to work with have all been so excited about their projects and willing to share their expertise."
Rocco Moretti, Ph.D.

"One of the wonderful things about the Rosetta Commons is its collaborative nature. Science works by building on others' work, and by sharing our developments and building on each other's discoveries, we've been able to make more progress than if our work had been siloed in individual labs."

"Making software better, one step at a time."

"Biomolecular modeling and design sits at this intersection of geometry, physics, and computation where the software is never finished. There's always a harder visualization problem or a new ML architecture to integrate."
