I'm super happy and proud to share that today I won a prize for Best PhD in Medicinal Chemistry in Denmark. Grateful for my supervisor @laraialab and all collaborators I got to work with along the way. Excited to represent Denmark at the #EFMC-ISMC 2024 in Rome later this year.

I'm excited that my project on degraders and stabilisers of SQS is out in Chemical Science as #ChemSciPicks. Gratefull for working with Cecilia, Mesut, @ERADLab, @Laura_dta and ofc @laraialab on this.
Delighted that our paper on degraders and stabilisers of squalene synthase in @ChemicalScience has been highlighted as #chemscipicks! Fantastic work by @HoockJoseph with great support by Cecilia, Mesut, @ERADLab and @Laura_dta!

We were in fact able to show that a designated PROTAC led to specifc concentration dependent stabilisation, while the underlying small molecule KY02111 degraded our target squalene synthase. Enjoy the read!

📢New #PhDposition! Work with us @ChemistryDtu to develop tools for determining target engagement, selectivity and phenotypic effects of inhibitors of sterol transport proteins. Deadline: 27th July, but applications assessed continuously. Please RT efzu.fa.em2.oraclecloud.com/…

My first preprint is out now! We targeted squalene synthase, an important enzyme for #cholesterol biosynthesis and identified small molecule degraders and stabilizers. Grateful for guidance by @laraialab 🙏 big thanks to Cecilia, @Laura_dta, @ERADLab and Mesut!
