Daniela Bargellini Rhodes

La Sapienza" in Rome, Italy and the Rockefeller University in NY, USA.[6][7][8][9][10]

Career and research

Daniela Rhodes has made many fundamental contributions to understanding the structure and function of nucleic acids and their biologically important interactions with many different proteins. Her work combines biochemical analyses with direct structural determination. She determined the structures of a number of important protein-DNA complexes involved in transcription, such as

telomeres are involved in preserving chromosome integrity.[11]

She joined the School of Biological Sciences at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), in Singapore, as professor in September 2011[12] and was additionally appointed professor at the Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine in September 2012.[13] In April 2014 she was appointed Director of the newly formed Nanyang Institute of Structural Biology.

Daniela left NTU in 2020 and is an Emeritus Scientist at the Laboratory of Molecular Biology.
