Although it was discovered in the 1950s, it took several decades to determine an atomic structure of the ribosome because of its complexity. This talk will cover Dr. Venki Ramakrishnan\u2019 efforts to unravel its structure. He will also speak about his own career which involved living on three continents and involved switching from his initial training in physics to learning and carrying out research in molecular biology.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/newsletter.sinica.edu.tw/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-1-725x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Academia Sinica Lecture of 2023\" width=\"725\" height=\"1024\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-12191\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newsletter.sinica.edu.tw/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-1-725x1024.jpg 725w, https:\/\/newsletter.sinica.edu.tw/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-1-212x300.jpg 212w, https:\/\/newsletter.sinica.edu.tw/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-1-768x1085.jpg 768w, https:\/\/newsletter.sinica.edu.tw/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-1-1087x1536.jpg 1087w, https:\/\/newsletter.sinica.edu.tw/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-1-1080x1526.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/newsletter.sinica.edu.tw/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-1.jpg 1359w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 725px) 100vw, 725px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Time: 10:00 to 11:50, Friday, August 11, 2023 Venue: International Conference Hall (3F), Humanities and Social Sciences Building (HSSB), Academia Sinica Topic: My Adventures in the Ribosome Speaker: Dr. Venki Ramakrishnan (Group Leader, MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge, England) Moderator: Dr. James C.
