We are excited to have Prakash Lingasamy MSc joined our lab to work on his PhD thesis on the development of multitargeted tumor penetrating peptides.
Prakash holds a master's degree in biotechnology at KTH-Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden. Afterwards, he worked as an intern at the BioPharmaceuticals Microbial Services (LBPSi), Downstream Processing R&D department, Lonza Limited (Switzerland) and worked with Prof. Luca Borradori and Dr. Bertrand Favre at Department of Dermatology, University Hospital Inselspital, University of Berne, Switzerland. He is expert in protein expression, purification, characterization, protein-protein interaction, physiological behaviour in the cell, synthesis, structure and biological function determination.

Prof. Tambet Teesalu presented his work on the P32 binding tumor penetrating peptide on the EMBO Young Investigator Program Cancer Group meeting in Heidelberg, Germany.
