1st International Caparica Conference in Splicing 2016, Lisbon, Portugal, September 2016
Exonate will be very well represented at the 1st International Conference on Splicing in Lisbon, Portugal 12-14th September. The team are presenting data on development of novel inhibitors of alternative splicing. Exonate’s scientific advisor Dr Jonathan Morris will be presenting his poster presentation on the development of Small Molecule Inhibitors of RNA Splicing Kinases and team member Zoe Blackley on the development of SRPK1 Inhibitors for use as Novel Analgesics.
Founding director Professor David Bates is a plenary speaker at the event and will be discussing the development of alternative splicing regulators as novel therapeutics. There will also be oral contributions from Exonate’s founding scientist Dr Lucy Donaldson. She will discuss inhibitors of alternative splicing as novel analgesics.
Dr Jenny Batson is an oral contributor. Her title, Novel SRPK1 inhibitors potently and selectively inhibit SRPK1-regulated VEGF-A alternative splicing with properties to control angiogenesis in vivo, will be discussed.
Exonate’s team members are available for meetings whilst there and contact can be made via Louise Shave. Louise.shave@exonate.com.
