Rate My Professor Martin Cann

Cann has earned significant recognition, including Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry (2023), Chair of RCUK Panel D (2022), Fellow of the Royal Society of Biology (2021), co-recipient of the Institute of Physics Rosalind Franklin Silver Medal (2020), and Leverhulme Trust Research Fellow (2003-2005). He chairs the REF 2029 sub-panel for Biological Sciences. His impactful publications include 'Bacteria encode post-mortem protein catabolism that enables altruistic nutrient recycling' (Nature Communications, 2025), 'Sensing molecular carbon dioxide - a translational focus for respiratory disease' (Physiological Reviews, 2025), 'Multiple carbamylation events are required for differential modulation of Cx26 hemichannels and gap junctions by CO₂' (Journal of Physiology, 2025), 'Allophycocyanin A is a carbon dioxide receptor in the cyanobacterial phycobilisome' (Nature Communications, 2022), 'Ubiquitin is a carbon dioxide-binding protein' (Science Advances, 2021), and the landmark 'Soluble adenylyl cyclase as an evolutionarily conserved bicarbonate sensor' (Science, 2000). With over 3,000 citations, his contributions have advanced the understanding of gas-mediated signaling in biology.
