His research has contributed to our understanding of immunity pathways and the potential for proteins as therapeutic agents. In his research he uses a combination of crystallography, electron microscopy, and a range of biophysical techniques and functional bioassays. Kobe is Professor of Structural Biology at the University of Queensland and leads the Protein Structure and Function research group. 1994 1994 Education - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), University of Texas Southwestern Medical Centre, Dallas, Texas, U.S.A. 1994 1995 Career position - Postdoctoral Fellow, Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Dallas, Texas, U.S.A. 1995 2002 Career position - Wellcome Senior Research Fellowship in Medical Science 1996 1996 Career position - ARC Postdoctoral Fellowship, St Vincent's Institute of Medical Research, Melbourne 2000 Career position - Associate Professor, University of Queensland 2000 2000 Award - Erice Vaciago Award, International School of Crystallographers 2001 2001 Award - Science Minister's Prize for Life Scientist of the Year, Commonwealth of Australia 2003 2003 Career position - Senior Research Fellow, National Health and Medical Research Council 2005 2010 Award - ARC Federation Fellowship 2009 2009 Award - Research Medal (Roche Medal), Australian Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology 2011 2015 Career position - Senior Research Fellow, National Health and Medical Research Council 2012 2014 Career position - President, Society of Crystallographers in Australian and New Zealand 2012 2015 Career position - Member, ARC College of Experts 2018 Award - Fellow, Australian Academy of Science (FAA) 2018 Award - ARC Laureate Fellowship 2018 2018 Award - Beckman Coulter Discovery Science Award, Australian Society for Biochemical and Molecular Biology Society of Crystallographers in Australia and New Zealand (2000 - )
