About Simeon R. Mihaylov
"I am a postdoctoral researcher in the kinases and brain development laboratory led by Dr Sila Ultanir at the Francis Crick Institute in London, England. I undertook my BSc in Biochemistry and Genetics at the University of Sheffield followed up by obtaining a PhD in molecular neuroscience at the Sheffield Institute for Translational Neuroscience. I then moved to King's College London, where my interest and passion for kinases in brain health and disease developed. I initially worked on mTOR in the pathogenesis of Tuberous Sclerosis Complex and then moved to the Francis Crick Institute working on the psychiatric risk kinase TNIK. I also work on multiple other kinases in our laboratory implicated in various neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders. My expertise includes biochemical approaches, proteomics and transcriptomics to name a few. I have recently also developed a strong interest in adhesion GPCRs and in particular, Bai1."

Intricacies Of Complex Assembly And Ligand Interaction In The Adhesion GPCR Latrophilin/Cirl

About Anne Bormann
"I am a biochemist by training and studied at Leipzig University from 2015 to 2020. During my Bachelor's in 2018, I sought practical lab experience and found a position as a student assistant in Dr. Nicole Scholz's lab. My main topics were protein biochemistry, Drosophila husbandry, and genetics. I was fortunate that Nicole offered me an opportunity to do my Master's and later on a PhD thesis in her group. Since then, I have broadened my horizons with many more techniques in vivo and in vitro, with a main emphasis on the Adhesion GPCR Latrophilin/Cirl. Currently, I am in the final stages of my PhD, and I am looking forward to new projects and ideas."
