great work by the whole team!
Ritika Chatterjee has joined us as an expert in infection biology to study host-pathogen interactions on the phagosome!
Welcome, Ritika!
A warm welcome to our NU undergraduates Ellie and Sava as well as our undergraduates from Madrid, Mark and Ruben!
We have two industrially funded PhD studentships available within the EPSRC-funded Mosmed CDT with start date in Sept 2023.
Applicants should be interested/experienced in mass spectrometry. Usually, we would expect applicants to have a masters.
The first project is with GSK to develop exciting “Mass spectrometry approaches to address capability gaps in drug discovery for membrane transporters”.
There will be a placement at GSK and the use of exciting novel technology.
Maria led the writing of this wonderful review in EMBO Mol Medicine together with colleagues from GSK (including our own ex-student Rachel Heap) and BI.
