Venkatraman Ramakrishnan, PhD, is a Nobel Prize winning structural biologist famous for his research on the structure and function of ribosomes. He generated a 3D model that showed how different antibiotics bind to the ribosome to help develop new advances in medical research. 3D Molecular Designs printed a ribosome model based on Ramakrishnan’s research, which we presented to him and researcher John Atkins, PhD, when we visited them in the UK in 2019. It now resides beside a replica model Watson and Crick created of DNA at the entrance to the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology at Cambridge University in the UK!
