Communication in 3D: Cellular signalling through a structural lens
About Professor Mace's research:
Peter’s research tackles how the three-dimensional structure of proteins allows them to control cellular behaviour. In the context of human cells, his work aims to understand protein signalling in progression and treatment of cancer, inflammation and metabolic diseases. He is enthusiastic to teach at all levels how molecular knowledge impacts critical biological processes. Peter's early career was supported by fellowships from the Division of Health Sciences, the United States Department of Defense, and a Rutherford Discovery Fellowship from the Royal Society of New Zealand. He has received major research grants from the Marsden Fund, and Health Research Council of New Zealand.
Peter is the President of the New Zealand Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Associate Dean (Research) for the School of Biomedical Sciences, and in 2022 was the recipient of the University of Otago Rowheath Award for early career research.
This lecture will be followed with light refreshments, tea, coffee and juice.
