The discovery of a new critical enzyme could help engineer climate resilient crops capable of sucking far more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere in a much more efficient way.
Professor Alexander Maier wants us to change our mind about parasites.
Meet the PhD researcher exploring how bacterial proteins could hold the key to reducing our reliance on fossil fuels.
Researchers have discovered why malaria parasites are vulnerable to some drug therapies but resistant to others, offering scientists another piece of the puzzle in the global fight against the disease.
A low-cost, non-toxic cancer treatment has been developed by researchers at The Australian National University (ANU). The treatment uses dead bacteria to help kick-start the immune system and shrink cancer.
Researchers from The Australian National University (ANU) have exposed a fatal flaw in the deadly parasite that causes malaria - one of the world's biggest killers.

Voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channels are essential for electrical signaling in excitable tissues, including the brain, heart, and muscles.
Many proteins migrate from cytoplasm to nucleus through their recognition by specialist receptors known as importins (IMPs).
Bacteriophages, with their intricate and highly specialized structures, represent some of the most fascinating architectures in the biological world. These viral entities serve as a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to chemical treatments in agriculture and as biocontrol agents against bacterial pathogens.
Natural products have long been celebrated as a treasure trove of therapeutic agents, serving as the foundation for many life-saving drugs. This general talk outlines possible approaches to the discovery and development of small molecule therapeutics for the treatment of inflammation and infectious diseases.
This presentation highlights high-resolution cryo-EM structures of C. albicans Cdr1 in various substrate-bound states, with and without nucleotides, resolved at 3.45–3.74 Å.
Making key insights into antimalarial resistance mechanisms and delineate the utility of cutting-edge computational approaches that will go on to inform future drug design strategies and efforts.
