Wrapping up Keystone Condensate meeting where Cliff gave opening keynote talk and former PhD student Marina Feric spoke about her postdoc work on phase separation in the mitochondria nucleoid. The meeting was at a beautiful location in aptly named Cliff lodge in Snowbird Utah!
Nice article in Nature Reviews in Drug Discovery on the potential for drug discovery targeting liquid phase separated condensates. Quotes from Cliff and highlights about our optoDroplet, Corelet, and Casdrop technologies.
Biomolecular condensates pique drug discovery curiosity
Transient liquid-like droplets made up of proteins and RNA are scattered throughout the cell — with potentially broad drug discovery implications.
