New additions to the RSC Chemical Biology Advisory Board!

We are delighted to welcome Professors Lei Liu & Guifang Jia, and Dr Chudi Ndubaku to the RSC Chemical Biology Advisory Board! They join 19 other prominent researchers in the chemical biology field.

Explore the current Advisory Board line-up below. For more information on the Editorial Board, visit rsc.li/rsc-chembio.

	Dr Chudi Ndubaku, ORIC Pharmaceuticals, USA Dr Ndubaku is the Vice President for Drug Discovery at ORIC Pharmaceuticals.
	Professor Guifang Jia, Peking University, China Professor Jia’s research focuses on the functions of RNA modifications in regulation of human diseases and plant development.
	Professor Lei Liu, Tsinghua University, China Research in the Lei group focuses on chemical protein synthesis and its applications to biomedical studies.
	Professor Paul Dyson, EPFL, Switzerland The research in Professor Dyson’s lab centres on organometallic chemistry at the interface with medicine, catalysis and material science.
	Professor Luc Brunsveld, TU Eindhoven, Netherlands Professor Brunsveld’s research interests are focused on chemical biology approaches studying protein-protein interactions, particularly drug discovery and supramolecular signalling systems.
	Professor Peng Chen, Peking University, China Professor Chen’s research focus is to develop novel technologies for protein manipulation in living cells, including protein-based bioorthoganol chemistry and precise protein engineering.
	Professor Donald Hilvert, ETH Zurich, Switzerland The group of Professor Hilvert are using chemical biology tools to understand and engineer proteins for various applications.
	Professor May Khanna, University of Arizona, USA The work of Professor Khanna’s lab looks to combine biochemical and biophysical techniques to target key protein-protein and protein-RNA interactions in neurodegenerative disease.
	Professor Hermen Overkleeft, Leiden University, Netherlands The research of the Overkleeft lab is characterized by the design, synthesis and application of chemical probes in glycobiology and immunology.
	Professor Giulio Superti-Furga, CeMM, Austria The Superti-Furga laboratory addresses the mechanisms by which cells respond to challenges that perturb homeostasis, and how homeostasis can subsequently be restored.
	Professor Xiu -Jie Wang, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China Professor Wang’s research interests include developing computational methods to analyze biological data, identifying new non-coding regulatory RNA genes and studying the functions of non-coding RNAs.
	Professor Christopher Chang, University of California Berkeley, USA Professor Chang’s research interests include transition metal signaling, activity-based sensing and artificial photosynthesis.
	Professor Russell Cox, Leibniz University Hannover, Germany The Cox group is interested in understanding and engineering the biosynthesis of natural products by fungi.
