- This research, in collaboration with the University of Surrey, was funded by the Leverhulme Trust (£164k; RPG-2014-267; Reddy co-PI). It was the first application of molecularly imprinted polymers for the biorecognition and sensitive and selective extraction of ribosomes from just 1000 cells; ribosome analysis is crucial to understanding gene regulation. It led to patent filing (GB1710353.2) and invitations to deliver two invited conference papers and one Keynote Lecture (Affinity 2017, Paris). This work has also led to new international collaborative funding in 2019/20 from the DAIWA Anglo-Japanese Foundation (13094/13096; AIST, Tsukuba, Japan) and The Royal Society (IES\R3\193093; Machakos University, Kenya).
