Amanda, Emily, and Taylor have the incredible opportunity to present their work at the 49th Annual Lorne Conference on Protein Structure and Function in Lorne VIC Australia. They have set their sights beyond the United States, but are struggling to gain the funding needed to support extensive travel costs. This opportunity will hopefully open new doors at Clark for grants, expand global engagement, and highlight the importance of Clark being a research institution. Their work contributes to better understanding how the malfunctions of protein complexes cause various human diseases.
