The following papers have been published in the past few months:
1."Sequence‐Driven Modulation of the Multistage Self‐Assembly Process in Lamellin‐Type β‐Peptides" has been published in Aggregate.
2. "An ATP‐Mediated Antibiotic β‐Peptide Nanofiber That Kills Multidrug‐Resistant Bacteria via a Multistage Mechanism" has been published in Advanced Science.
We are happy to inform you that a recent paper by our collabolators at the Pázmány Péter Catholic University, Budapest, gained special interest. The paper describes the structure of a protein complex involved in communication between neurons. It has been published in The FEBS Journal accompanied by an invited Commentary written by Prof. Elisar Barbar, a leading researcher in the field.
Our EVADERE (Enhanced VAccines DEsign against antimicrobial REsistance) project was awarded a grant under the MSCA-DN programme with a score of 97.5%. The Marie Skłodowska Curie Doctoral Network programme supports collaborative research projects involving 15 PhD students. The EVADERE project is expected to start in summer 2025 and will focus on the development of novel antigens, adjuvants and delivery systems against antimicrobial resistance. HUN-REN TTK Peptide-based Vaccines Research Group participates in the call as work package leader.
We are offering 15 positions for early-stage researchers to participate in the EVADERE (Enhanced VAccines DEsign against antimicrobial REsistance) program, an EU-funded Marie Skłodowska-Curie PhD training network, in the fields of medicinal chemistry, immunology, microbiology, medical sciences, and vaccinology.
Please join me in congratulating Zoli on appearing in the media with a very important topic: cancer research and the way to treatment:
We warmly welcome three new colleagues in the Research Group for Biolomolecular Self-Assembly: Fiza Faiz, Omaima Barkaoui and Klinsalee Rachaneekorn, and wish all of them a pleasant stay in Hungary and fruitful research work.
We are happy to share that the first issue of ‘Creative Biochemistry’ started with a recent MD simulation result on the antifungal protein NFAP2 by Olivér.

We proudly congratulate our group member, Kamilla Ujvári, for earning 2nd place in the Analytical Chemistry Section at the national conference of the 37th OTDK! A truly commendable achievement!
We had a wonderful time on March 21st, hiking from Normafa through János Hill to the Kaán Károly Lookout in Hárshegy, finishing with a traditional meal at Szépjuhászné restaurant.
Our research group member (Peptide-Based Vaccines), Tamás Krisztián Kőműves won 1st place at the Semmelweis University Students’ Scientific Conference and was qualified for the national round (OTDK). Tamás' topic is on the antimicrobial activity of cationic lipopeptides.
Congratulations for the great success!
