It has been a roller coaster year for me after experiencing extreme happiness and loss. Today I’m starting as a new PI ANU Research School of Chemistry. Very grateful to all my extended academic family Biology at ANU and all past and current mentors. Looking forward to forge new networks and collabs!


N&V about papers in Science Magazine: "TIR-mediated immunity: Small molecules unlock broad-spectrum plant resistance" rdcu.be/d5riU ..the mechanism by which TIR NADase-derived 2′cADPR and pRib-AMP/ADP activate EDS1–PAD4–ADR1 (EPA) signalling, thereby inducing immunity.



ANU is looking to recruit up to 10 positions in Plant Synthetic Biology and Gene Editing for a new multi-million investment by the Australian Govt. A link to one of the two leadership positions is below. jobs.anu.edu.au/jobs/facility-… For any enquiries email [email protected]

"Science gives you a chance to solve problems, learn about the world around us, interact with excited and keenly intelligent people and to hopefully do something useful for the world," says ANU chemist Prof Valeska Ting (Ting Research Group). Read the full Q&A: nature.com/articles/s4200…

A global research team, including ANU scientists, discovered that an enzyme known as a ‘NUDIX hydrolase’ is used by many fungal pathogens as a weapon to cause disease in plants. The findings are published in Science Magazine. science.anu.edu.au/news-events/ne…


Check out our latest study with Colin Jackson on covalent fragments that selectively inhibit the Chikungunya virus protease as a starting point for future drug discovery. Congrats to everyone involved in this collaboration ANU Research School of Chemistry! doi.org/10.1016/j.bmcl…




CAREER AWARDS Scientific breakthroughs hinge on innovative techniques and data analysis. Prof Alison Rodger FAA (Science & Medicine at ANU) has spent her career advancing spectroscopy, using polarised light to explore helical structures and molecular assemblies.
