ARC Training Centre for Cryo-Electron Microscopy of Membrane Proteins for Drug Discovery

该中心旨在培养膜蛋白冷冻电子显微镜领域的世界级毕业生。该中心的毕业生和研究成果将使未来在结构增强药物设计方面的工业扩张成为可能。预期成果是世界一流的结构生物学知识和技术，以及行业所需的创业和技术技能。这将带来巨大的好处，包括提高澳大利亚的生物技术能力和改善与主要制药伙伴的联系。它还应该为新兴的澳大利亚生物技术公司提供实质性的竞争优势，这些公司还将与国家对药物发现和开发基础设施的新投资联系起来。

This Centre aims to train industry-ready, world class graduates in cryo-electron microscopy of membrane proteins. The Centre’s graduates and research results would enable tomorrow’s industrial expansion in structure-enhanced drug design. Expected outcomes are world-first structural biology knowledge and techniques, and the entrepreneurial and technical skills desired by industry. This should provide significant benefits including advancing Australian biotechnological capacity and improved linkages with major pharmaceutical partners. It should also provide a substantive competitive advantage to nascent Australian biotechnology companies that also links into new National investment into drug discovery and development infrastructure.
