Editorial overview: Understanding membrane and membrane proteins: Where do we go now?

Manuel Palacín graduated from the University of Barcelona in 1979 and obtained a Ph.D. degree in 1983 in the University of Alcalá de Henares (Madrid). Palacín conducted his post-doctoral training at the Cedars Sinai Medical Center (Los Angeles, USA) and the University of Zürich (Switzerland). In 1994 he became Full Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University of Barcelona and since 2004 is Principal Investigator (PI) in the IRB-Barcelona and since 2006 is group leader in the Spanish CIBERER. His group is interested in membrane proteins, with the focus in the physiology, pathophysiology and mechanisms of transport of heteromeric amino acid transporters.

Anirban Banerjee obtained his B.Sc.(Honours) from Jadavpur University and M.Sc. from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur. He received his Ph.D. from the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology at Harvard University in 2005 and was a postdoctoral fellow at The Rockefeller University. He started as an Earl Stadtman Investigator in the intramural program of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and has been a Senior Investigator since 2020. Research in his group is directed towards understanding the structure and mechanism of enzymes that carry out posttranslational lipid modification of proteins and transporters that move transition metal ions and lipids across cell membrane.
