Abstract
Amino Acids, Peptides and Proteins comprises a comprehensive and critical review of significant developments at the biology and chemistry interface. Compiled by leading researchers in their subject, this volume incorporates current trends and emerging areas for example discovery and validation of novel protein/peptide biomarkers, proteins and peptides for the diagnosis and therapy of a parasite infection and surface and interface analysis of functional proteins and peptides. Appealing broadly to researchers in academia and industry, it will be of great benefit to any researcher wanting a succinct reference to developments now and looking to the future.
Max obtained his PhD from Lomonosov Moscow State University and Russian Academy of Sciences in 2000. After a postdoctorate in Sussex, he pursued independent academic research in Bristol and Leicester before joining NPL as a principal research scientist in 2010 where he is currently a science area leader for Biotechnology.
