ARC-funded researchers from @CoeMinerals have unveiled a breakthrough: a recyclable peptide that recovers critical metals in one clean step. The achievement was celebrated yesterday at a Parliament House event attended by ARC CEO and staff. Learn more: advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad…
I am excited to share my PhD. work published in Nature Communications.All about discovery, characterisation and enginneering of class A3 evasins inhibiting the inflammatory chemokines. nature.com/articles/s4146…
That's much deserved.
Check out this review I wrote with Dr. Moumita Dutta in the special issue on "Cryogenic Electron Microscopy of Infectious Diseases" @FrontiersIn in Molecular Biosciences. frontiersin.org/journals/molec… @DukeHIVStrucBio @DHVI_Struc_Bio @TheDHVI @DukeMedSchool @DukeU

Gelje Sherpa, the man who was guiding a private client up Mt. Everest when he saw someone in distress near the summit. He went up, rolled him up in a sleeping mattress and gave him oxygen. He then strapped the man to his back and trekked 6 hours to safety
Proud moment! Our 2 PhD students graduated. They took the project -engineering of tick anti-inflammatory proteins- to the next level. Many congratulations to @Pramod_pharm and @ShankarRajDevk1
NEWS: Short peptides derived from anti-inflammatory ‘evasins’ released by ticks could be used to develop new treatments for anti-inflammatory disease. Read more here: nature.com/articles/s4146… @OxfordMedSci
