Robin Doley, PhD

Project: My research involved the identification and characterization of novel proteins from snake venom. These novel proteins were identified by both molecular biology and protein chemistry approach.

Current institute: Tezpur University, India

Zhou Xingding, PhD

Project: Studied the relationship of venom protein structure and function with the help of X-ray crystallography. Also studied the drug development for neutralizing snake venom.

Current institute: IMCB, Singapore

Raghurama Hegde, PhD

Project: Studied the minimization of PLA2 enzyme without altering its catalytic activity. This involved expression, purification and activity studies of the native and mutant forms of the enzyme.
