A special interest group of the Australian Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB). E-mail perthproteins@gmail.com to join the mailing list and be kept informed of relevant events. Also, be sure to follow us on Twitter at @PerthProteins.
Now in our third year, we have social mixers, swarm regularly at Lorne Proteins, host international speakers and each run an AGM on a shoestring budget that are heaps of fun. AGM 2020 was at UWA Albany, AGM2021 was at ECU Bunbury. Late 2021 we hosted a seminar by UQ's Evelyne Deplazes at Curtin. Please e-mail us to join the contact list or DM @PerthProteins
On 26-27 October we held AGM2022 at the Curtin Graduate School of Business in Perth city. Congratulations to our 2022 prize-winners and to our keynote speakers John Bruning and Alice Vrielink. All our news will be on our Twitter feed. It's even a great place to ask for equipment in WA, see example 1 and example 2 for two successful exemplar posts! Harness the power of social media!
Registration is open for our 2023 AGM at UWA's Albany campus Fri 3 Nov to Sun 5 Nov. Register here and earlybird pricing ends 12 October. To submit an abstract, download our template and send it in to perthproteins@gmail.com also by 12 October. We love having students and EMCRs share their research and we look after our ASBMB members, so ensure your ASBMB membership is current!
We're always looking for members of the Perth protein community to get involved, especially when it comes to taking charge of PPG events, e-mail perthproteins@gmail.com to express your interest.
