Organic Chemistry, Advanced Biochemistry, Introduction to Chemical Research Advanced Biochemistry class. This is a new course I have developed as an advanced seminar on current topics in Cell Signal Tranduction. The course takes a structural biology approach of trying to understand structure-function relationships of proteins in intracellular communication networks. The course also looks from a chemist's perspective, incorporating aspects of drug design using small organic molecules.
Students focus on current literature articles to learn about present research directions.
Research at Kenyon. Structure-function analysis of enzymes using peptide model systems to understand mechanisms of regulation. Students in Research. In my first year at Kenyon, I have worked with Erin Wimmers '99, Eva McClellan, and Greg Stone. This summer, Erin Wimmers '99 will work with me as a Summer Science Scholar.
