My post-doctoral position in John C. Reed’s lab at the Sanford-Burnham Institute allowed me to build on skills that I’d acquired during my Ph.D. work and apply them to the study of the Bcl-2 protein family, which is involved in the regulation of cell death (apoptotic) pathways. When I began in the Reed lab, the idea of Bcl-2 proteins inserting into.

My Ph.D. thesis, supervised by Prof. W. A. Cramer, centered on colicin E1, a bacterial toxin produced by some E. coli strains. Colicins kill by several mechanisms, including inhibiting protein or cell wall synthesis, but pore-forming colicins have a unique quality wherein they are synthesized as soluble proteins, but under certain conditions will insert.

Purdue University

During my work as a Research Technician at Purdue University, I gathered experimental data for members of the W.A. Cramer lab in the Department of Biological Sciences. My experimental support responsibilities included: ensuring a sufficient supply of purified proteins for experiments; developing a protocol for production of heavy atom derivatives for.
