Mackay and Matthews labs win ARC Discovery Grants

Both Jacqui and Joel were awarded ARC Discovery Grants for 2003-2005. Jacqui's grant ($300,000) will allow her to continue her work aimed at understanding the role of specific transcription factors in the control of gene expression, and to begin to design specific reagents that may interfere with aberrent expression of certain genes. Joel's grant will allow us to probe the structure and function of a novel protein involved in the regulation of globin production. This grant ($600,000) included a prestigious ARC Postdoctoral Fellowship for David Gell (who has been working in the Mackay lab on a Wellcome Trust Travelling Fellowship for two years). If you are interested in working in our...

Joel wins Minister’s Prize for the Life Sciences

In a dinner held at Parliament House in Canberra several weeks ago, Joel was presented with the Science Minister's Prize for Life Scientist of the Year. The award came with a $35,000 cheque and a medal. The award was given for the contribution made by Joel and his research group towards understanding the role of zinc-binding domains in controlling gene expression.

Wanted: postdoc biochemist/structural biologist to work with Richard Payne, Sydney/US startup INSAMO (and me). Goal: use cyclic peptide mRNA display to design cell-permeable peptide-based protein degraders: https://usyd.wd105.myworkdayjobs.com/USYD_EXTERNAL_CAREER_SITE/job/Darlington-Campus/Postdoctoral-Researcher-in--Peptide-Based-Drug-Discovery_0131612-1
