New publications! Our manuscript describing the mechanism by which the small molecule chaperone Ambroxol inhibits the co-assembly of alpha-synuclein with lipids into amyloid fibrils is now published at Chemical Science Journal. This collaborative work with Jesper Dreier, Elliot Carles, Katharina Schott, Alisdair Stevenson and Thomas Michaels suggests a novel role of Ambroxol that can act […]
