Matthew received the poster award in the Biochemistry annual retreat. He presented his thesis work on the biosynthesis studies of antifungal peptidyl nucleoside natural products. Congratulations!! This is the fifth poster award for the lab since the establishment in 2011.
An article published by STAT, a national publication medium focused on scientific and medical discoveries, highlights the current status of functional enzymology, for which Ken provided expertise. It describes the importance of genome mining discovery of enzymes with novel functions, the interests of many enzymologists including us.
A conference to celebrate JoAnne Stubbe’s 70th birthday will be held in Boston MA on June 11-12. Most of the Stubbe lab alumni and many collaborators (~130 attendees) will gather and discuss their latest progress. Ken will give a talk and Edward will present a poster. Thank you Marty (Bollinger) and Dan (Nocera) for organizing such an exciting event. Looking forward to see friends and new people.
