Last night’s Curious Minds talk was a cracker!
Professor Alessio Ciulli runs one of the biggest and highest profile research teams in Dundee. He is a world leader in the field of Targeted Protein Degradation – a way to encourage a cell’s natural garbage-disposal mechanisms to remove rogue proteins.
TPD is a breakthrough method that has enabled the development of multiple new drugs for treating some of the most intractable cancers and other diseases. More than 30 drugs are currently in the approval pipeline with many more promised – and many are based on the Ciulli group’s work in Dundee.
