Adam Mamot

Dr. Adam Mamot is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry, working under the supervision of Petra Schwille. His research focuses on designing and studying minimal gene expression machinery in the context of lipid membranes, with a strong emphasis on synthetic biology and therapeutic applications of mRNA.

Education:

• Bachelor's Degree in Chemistry from the University of Warsaw (best bachelor's thesis on click chemistry-based methods for mRNA detection)
• PhD in RNA modification techniques from the University of Warsaw (advances in mRNA molecular probes and chemically modified circular RNA)

Dr. Mamot's research interests span mRNA therapeutics, RNA transcription and modification, molecular self-organization and compartmentalization, synthetic biology, and gene delivery systems. His work bridges chemical innovation with biological applications, particularly in developing self-assembling systems for mRNA production and delivery.

His publications highlight expertise in RNA chemistry, including circularization techniques, labeling tools, and cap analogues. These studies often integrate advanced imaging and computational methods for analyzing RNA dynamics in cellular environments.

Scientific Awards:

• START Prize from the Foundation for Polish Science
• Alexander von Humboldt Foundation Fellowship
• Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship

Dr. Mamot has also contributed to patent development, including N-(2-aminoethyl)morpholine RNA analogs, which have potential applications in RNA therapeutics and diagnostics.
