Look who visited! Great to have @Stephanhacker2 at @thecrick to talk about his fantastic work on properly characterizing electrophiles for #DrugDiscovery #chembio!
We just had our 4th #lab anniversary 🙂 I am fortunate to work #glycotime with a group of amazing people! #NotSoNewPIAnymore
An #introduction into our work on #glycotime! We are a lab joint between the Francis Crick Institute and the Department of Chemistry at Imperial College London. We develop what we call chemical "precision tools" to investigate protein #glycosylation. These tools are specific for individual #glycosyltransferases, #glycan subtypes or cell lines. We employ methods of #chembio including #OrgChem, protein engineering, #glycoproteomics, #imaging, #chemoenzymatic synthesis and drug discovery.
