Scientific Exchange to University of Cambridge
PhD student António Figueira traveled to Cambridge to explore the phase separation behaviour of Tau and S100B proteins using computational simulation approaches developed by the consortium partners at University of Copenhagen (UCPH). With the guidance of Prof. Lindorff-Larsen and the support of researcher Giulio Tesei and PhD student Fan Cao, Daniela collected in silico protein-protein interactions data that will complement the ongoing in vitro experiments conducted at Ciências ULisboa.
