- This delegate is presenting an abstract at this event.
Dr Miaomiao Liu is an NHMRC Emerging Leadership Fellow and an ECR Research Leader at the Institute for Biomedicine and Glycomics. She obtained a joint PhD degree in 2017 from Griffith University and the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences. She has a career total of 52 research outputs including 49 peer- reviewed publications ,1 book chapter and 2 patent applications in the field of native MS, natural product chemistry and metabolomics. Dr Liu has attracted >$4.15M in research funding ($1.34 M as CIA and $1.2M as CIB) including two fellowships (NHMRC EL1 Investigator Fellowship (2024- 2028); Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) Fellowship, 2022-2023) and a commercial project with big pharma industry partner Genentech (CIB, 2019 – 2021).
Her multidisciplinary research program rests on three pillars:
1. Target identification by native mass spectrometry to identify the molecular target of bioactive molecules without the need to derivatise the molecule.
2. Characterising of ternary complex formed between a target protein, a PROteolysis Targeting Chimera (PROTAC) and an E3-ubqiutin ligase by native mass spectrometry.
3. Natural products chemistry by combining phenotypic-based drug discovery and target-based drug discovery to identify active compounds from natural resources.
