From an exciting molecule to catalytic medicine
Is it possible to repair oxidative damage in cell DNA by introducing small molecules that can activate a repair protein? If so, a medical paradigm shift may be on the way, according to Wallenberg Scholar Thomas Helleday.
Seeking the answer to human genetic diversity
Wallenberg Scholar Tuuli Lappalainen wants to find patterns in our DNA that can bring us closer to new therapies.
Cancer cells fooling neurons into weakening the immune system
Sebastien Talbot’s research team has studied what happens to the interaction in a number of chronic conditions such as allergies and inflammatory diseases. They are now focusing on skin cancer.
Three-dimensional images enhance our molecular understanding of nature
Xiaodong Zou has long dreamed of being able to take pictures of the tiniest constituents of nature, such as aromatic substances – scents and odors. She is now developing analytical methods that image small molecules in three dimensions and in greater detail than ever before. This opens the way for better drugs and new fundamental discoveries in chemistry.
