New Semester, New Students in House

So the spring semester has officially started and we have also gained new students, Madalena and Mafalda from the University of Lisbon. Madalena will work with our PP2A-activators and their prodrugs project and Mafalda with our carnitine prodrugs. Both will work with HPLC method development, bioconversion and cellular uptake studies. Not easy compounds to work with, but I'm sure, as a fifth gradue student, they will do fine! 😎 Also, Simone from Rome will continue with the synthesis of OATP-selective prodrugs, and Juuso, our M.Sc. student with modelling of CAT1 transporter and synthesizing suitable prodrugs towards it. There have been also other requests for the later spring time, let's see who else we will host and from where... 😂
