Happy 1st October! 🍁 The brilliant reds, oranges & yellows of autumn leaves aren’t just a seasonal show, they’re the result of clever chemistry. A perfect reminder that chemistry always leaves us impressed. 🍂 Many thanks to @compoundchem.com for the fabulous graphic. #ColourChemistry

Super happy to share that our work on the specific inhibition of USP30 - a clinical stage Parkinson's drug target - is now online at NSMB www.nature.com/articles/s41... Have a read if you fancy chimeric protein engineering or a framework for DUB ligandability. Huge congratulations to Nafizul & team!
