Postdoc with @w_mcewan at @ukdri Cambridge. Developing targeted protein degradation strategies against neurodegenerative protein aggregates.
Cambridge, England
Joined September 2018
Very happy to share our paper describing the selective degradation of aggregated tau protein via clustering activated RING-Nanobody (R-Nb) constructs. Intracellular R-Nb expression prevented tau aggregation and rapidly removed preformed aggregates.

It's been a long journey from TRIMinator to R-Nb, and wouldn't have been possible without the expertise of my co-first author Shi Cheng and the support of @w_mcewan and the many others involved in this project!
