We were awarded along with our collaborators at the Ruhl Laboratory at the Oral Biology Department an “IMPACT” grant for studying evolution of a salivary protein. This happens to be the first official grant from the
Omer recently got a story published in the popular Turkish Science online magazine ‘Açık Bilim‘. It is mostly a popular retelling of this paper. If you read Turkish, enjoy. 🙂
