Richard Willson Richard Willson, Associate Professor Ph.D., 1988. My research centers on the basic mechanisms of protein separation and purification processes, particularly those involving chromatography and molecular recognition. We also collaborate with several members of the department on projects of mutual interest, including the development of novel molecular recognition agents, and new sensing and diagnostic systems.
Tools used include directed mutagenesis, molecular modeling, and a variety of biophysical methods.
The group includes students from the areas of chemical engineering and biochemistry. Gill, D. S., D. J. Roush and R. C. Willson. 1994.Microcalorimetric study of the Association of Hen Egg Lysozyme with the Antilysozyme Antibody HyHEL-5. . Djojonegoro, B. M., M. J. Benedik and R. C. Willson.
