Just arrived in Tokyo & now on the Bullet Train to Sendai, and I saw our latest preprint has just been posted on bioRxiv.😊 In this work, we studied condensate-mediated chaperoning of a pathological amber stop codon prion protein mutant (Y145Stop) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

#Walk_in_interview for a #JRF position in our lab is on 8th Oct 2024. Please spread the word.

Congratulations to Dr. Santosh Satbhai Santosh Satbhai on being awarded the Scientific High Level Visiting Fellowship (SSHN) 2024 by the French Embassy in India. Best wishes to Dr. Satbhai for his upcoming visit to France!
