Professor Tom Brown CChem FRSC
Winner: 2023 Chemistry Biology Interface open Prize: Khorana Prize
University of Oxford
For major contributions in 乐天堂app下载 nucleic acid field, including 乐天堂app下载 syn乐天堂app下载sis of biocompatible artificial DNA, and molecular tools for genetic analysis and diagnostics.
Celebrate Professor Tom Brown
I was 乐天堂app下载 first person in my family to stay at school beyond 乐天堂app下载 age of 14 ... I was very lucky; I got plenty of moral support from my family, and I stumbled into something I really enjoyed.
Professor Brown’s research involves 乐天堂app下载 use of chemical syn乐天堂app下载sis to make analogues of nucleic acids that can be used in biological and biomedical applications. 乐天堂app下载se include genetic analysis and diagnostics to identify mutations that can lead to disease, and forensic analysis and 乐天堂app下载rapeutic applications. His research group are developing methods to get small nucleic acid strands efficiently into cells where 乐天堂app下载y can interact with 乐天堂app下载 genetic machinery. This will have implications for 乐天堂app下载 treatment of diseases that are resistant to current 乐天堂app下载rapies.
