project title
Structures of intramembrane receptor complexes: capturing transient GPCR dimers
funded by
Ragnar Söderbergs stiftelse
Following a successful postdoctoral stint in the USA that lead to several extensive studies in the journal Nature, Linda Johansson recently returned to the University of Gothenburg to continue her path as lead researcher.
Johansson is a medical structural biologist who develops pioneering microscopic methods to study the interaction between receptors for the hormone melatonin in our brain. This research may prove helpful in developing more effective methods and medicines for the treatment of type-2 diabetes and sleep difficulties.
