DOVESTON LAB

Leicester Institute of Structural and Chemical Biology

Our lab is located in the Henry Wellcome Building which is home to The Leicester Institute of Structural and Chemical Biology (LISCB). It is the ideal location to undertake interdisciplinary research at the interface of chemistry and biology. We have access to world-class facilities for synthetic chemistry and molecular characterisation, biophysical analysis, structural biology (crystallography, NMR and cryo-EM), and cell biology.

We work very closely with collaborators both in Leicester, and further afield, who have expertise across a range of fields:

Prof. Salvador Macip and the Mechanisms of Cancer and Ageing Lab

Prof. Andrew Hudson

Dr. Fred Muskett

Dr. Aneika Leney (University of Birmingham)

Dr. Pietro Roversi (CNR IBBA, Milan)
