Abstract Despite lacking a stable three-dimensional structure, intrinsically disordered protein regions (IDRs) are ubiquitous across all kingdoms of life and have essential cellular roles1.

I count this as an award under journalism because without my Editor-in-chief position, I never would have gotten the spot.
