Pentti Tienari visit
In October 2018 the laboratories of Protobios were visited by leading Multiple sclerosis practicing MD and principal investigator from the University of Helsinki Prof Pentti Tienari and his lab technician Lilja Jansson. The visit was performed within the SZTest project. Our honourable guests shared their knowledge in field of neuro-immunology and introduced relevant advanced methods.


Nobel Prize for phage display
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2018 was assigned to George P. Smith and Sir Gregory P. Winter for the invention of phage display of peptides and antibodies, as well as Frances H. Arnold for the directed evolution of enzymes. These two powerful methods of screening are fundamentally used in manufacturing and drug development, including our labs!
