Structure and Function of the Ubiquitin System in Infection and Immunity
Ibtehal presented her PhD project at the Three Minute Thesis final and won the Peoples’s Choice Award!
Finally! After a long wait due to the pandemic Wei and Irene receive their PhD certificates at our graduation ceremony. Congrats again to Dr. Pinzuti and Dr. Song!
Our work about N4BP1 and M1-linked ubiquitin is now on bioRxiv:
Doctor Ibtehal Albursan from Jordan has joined the lab. She decided to swap the stethoscope for a lab coat and do a PhD on the role of the ubiquitin system in bacterial infection. Ibtehal is supported by the Islamic Development Bank.
Deepa Bajantri has joined us from India to work on the regulation of ubiquitin chain formation. She is supported by a National Overseas Scholarship and finally arrived in London after a year long wait due to various lockdowns.
Congratulations to Wei, who just passed his viva!
Na (Anna) Liu has joint the lab as a CSC fellow. Her PhD project focuses on bacterial ubiquitin ligases.
We have three fully funded PhD positions available to study the structural biology of molecular machines in microbial infection. Application deadline: 31. January 2020
