Dr. U Deva Priyakumar and his student Rohit Modee presented their research work at the 7th Indian Peptide Society conference from 28  February – 1 March at BITS Pilani , Hyderabad:

Dr. U Deva Priyakumar gave a talk on New Insights on Urea-Peptide Interactions and Rohit Modee working under the supervision of Dr. U Deva Priyakumar presented a poster on Cosolvent effect on protein (Un)folding equilibrium

Indian Peptide Society, a non-profit Scientific Society founded in 2006 provides a platform for researchers in this interdisciplinary field. It also facilitates communication, co-operation and collaboration with national and international forums in understanding of chemistry and biology of peptides.

The event focused its deliberations on Chemistry and structure of peptides, novel endogenous peptides, combinatorial chemistry, peptide protein interactions, structure activity relationships, molecular modelling of peptides, and peptides in genomics, proteomics, peptide drug discovery and analytical techniques in peptide research.
