SUMMARY:MBI WIS: Finding the right path: How do multidomain proteins avoid misfolding and how can women avoid the pitfalls in their scientific career paths? by Jane Clarke
DESCRIPTION:Prof Clarke will be visiting MBI on December 5th\, 2018\, to give a seminar on her research and career. \nWhen: Wednesday\, December 5th\, 2018\nWhere: MBI Seminar Room\, Level 5\, T-Lab\nTime: TBA \nFinding the right path:  How do multidomain proteins avoid misfolding and how can women avoid the pitfalls in their scientific career paths?\nProteins have to fold to the correct structure if they are to function and avoid misfolding. Most eukaryotic proteins contain more than one independently folding domain. Since the local concentration of domains is high\, how do natural proteins avoid misfolding? \nAt least half of the students studying natural sciences in the early years at university are women\, and yet few make it to the top.  What can we do to avoid such a waste of talent? What can we do to ensure that women can enjoy what is the most satisfying of careers? \nClarke will show that nature\, through evolution\, has developed strategies that ensure that misfolding is rare.  Similarly\, she will show that we can develop both personal and institutional strategies to help women reach the top. \nLearn more about Prof Clarke
