New research article where we use consensus #toxins as #antigens for discovery of #nanobodies, showcasing this with short-chain alpha-neurotoxins from snakes - notoriously difficult to discover antibodies against.

Happy to share this "Ubegribeligt" podcast episode (in Danish) on venom and antivenom, which I had the pleasure of doing together with Huxi Bach from Danmarks Radio: www.dr.dk/lyd/p1/ubegr...
In the podcast, we discuss animal venoms, antivenom, and R&D, and spinout!
