Research Experience

老澳门六合彩图库, 2021-present
Advisor: Michael Lerch, PhD
Project: 1) Exploring the molecular mechanisms of lipid head group interactions with the beta-2 adrenergic receptor, 2) Molecular modeling of protein conformational ensembles from DEER spectroscopy data, 3) Using pressure jump EPR spectroscopy to evaluate kinetics of protein conformational rearrangement

University of Wisconsin – La Crosse 2016-2019
Advisors: Drs. Todd Weaver & Daniel Grilley
Projects: 1) Performing site-directed alterations to the hemolysin A non polar core to probe for critical residues of structural and functional importance concerning red blood cell lysis, 2) Calculating and extrapolating chemical and thermal stability of SS loop mutants within fumarase C as part of a larger project in exploring the SS loop and its importance in catalysis of fumarate to S-malate.
