Installation, service, and maintenance of NMR and MRI instruments, including CryoProbes, solids (MAS, CP/MAS, DNP/LTMAS, and static), and HR-MAS probes. Conduct customer demonstrations & training on hardware/software, as well as diffusion, materials, biological, small molecule, and polymer applications, including GxP environments..

I have initiated a project on multidimensional solid state NMR of a > 250 kDa functional multiprotein complex involved in bacterial signal transduction, including determination of preliminary spin system assignments. I also contributed to ongoing projects on NMR methods development for temperature-sensitive biological samples and for oriented biological.

I am pursuing biochemical and biophysical studies of the interaction between actin-binding proteins to actin as well as membranes, employing such techniques as light scattering, surface plasmon resonance (BIAcore) methods, biochemical assays, and small-angle scattering methods. I am also responsible for the expression, purification, and characterization of.

I was responsible for the production, purification, and characterization of photosynthetic complexes as part of an effort to further understand and develop solar energy alternatives from an anaerobic bacterium.

Ph.D., Biophysical Chemistry

My research focused on biophysical studies of metalloproteins by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, in particular solid state.

B.S., Biochemistry & Molecular Biology, Chemistry

My research involved production, purification, and characterization of naturally occurring photosynthetic complexes found in.
