Our latest Scandanavian arrives!

Mats Gustaffson is an undergraduate from Uppsala University in Sweden who has joined the lab (as of today) as part of the research training component of his undergraduate degree. He will work with Ann on developing the use of ribosome display and phage display for protein engineering.

Sandra wins poster prize

Sandra Wissmüller recently attended the 6th Discovery Science and Biotechnology Meeting in Brisbane, where she was awarded an Early Career Researcher poster prize for her poster: Specific Interactions of Sox Proteins with many Transcription Factors. The work described there was part of her PhD thesis in her former lab in Germany and was published last year. The sponsors give half of the money directly to the winners and use the other half to pay the registration fee for any other conference the winner chooses to attend.

Margie and Ann win Linkage Grant

Margie and Ann were recently awarded an ARC Linkage Grant to investigate the possible biotechnological uses of hydrophobin proteins. The work is a collaboration with the German chemical company BASF.

Amazing story from the lab down the corridor - @RezwanSidd working with Sandro Ataide and Ruth Hall in @SydneySOLES at @Sydney_Science - now they will be thrown into the gladiators' pit I suspect with the other protagonists that prowl this landscape! 🙂 Great piece of work!
