My work centres on RNA biology – including structure, dynamics and interactions of RNA with ligands. As such it fits perfectly into Biomolecular engineering domain. We use biochemistry and biophysical techniques (NMR, cryoEM, ITC, SEC-MALS, SEC-SAXS, BLI, MST, CD etc.), as well as cellular techniques (CLIP, LC MS/M/S, proximity labelling, microscopy). Most of our work is linked to cancer., and how to target previously deemed ‘undruggable’ protein and RNA targets.
