Our team participated in the Newcastle University Chemistry and Alumni Research Symposium – a fantastic event celebrating the breadth and depth of research across the Chemistry Department in the School of Natural and Environmental Sciences.
PhD student Tom Smith delivered an insightful talk on the role of mRNA-display library bias in hit generation campaigns, shedding light on a key factor influencing cyclic peptide drug discovery outcomes.
Meanwhile, two of our PhD student researchers showcased their work through poster presentations:
- Emma Wadforth presented on Developing Cyclic Peptide Probes for Investigation of Human Neuraminidase Isoforms
- Tim Bell shared his research on Peptide Technologies to Probe Chemokine Specificity.
This symposium provides a great platform for exchanging ideas and reconnecting with alumni, and highlights the strength of Newcastle University’s research community.
