Nominator's project description

Professor Rose is an internationally leading scientist in the field of protein chemistry and has made seminal contributions to the understanding of protein folding and stability. He introduced methods for identification and classification of protein secondary structure elements and developed a commonly used hydrophobicity scale for amino acids. In Germany, Professor Rose will study the structure and dynamics of unfolded polypeptide chains in order to test models for protein folding proposed by him.
