We are pleased to announce the arrival of Donald Martin and Marco Maccarini at LMGP.
Donald Martin, UGA professor in the Faculty of Pharmacy, is an expert in medical biotechnology. He was awarded an ERC Advanced Grant entitled "Energy Production and Storage Using the Biological Ion Transport System (ENERGION)" which began in 2024.
The "Energion" project aims to redefine the concept of biological engineering by conducting fundamental research on the assembly of "smart" nanostructured systems of artificial cells using combinations of proteins, biomolecules, and lipids with synthetic materials.
Marco Maccarini, CNRS Researcher, is an expert in biophysics and soft matter physics. He develops his research topics using major instruments (ILL, ESRF). He is interested in the interaction between proteins and lipid membranes.
