Professor Kosinski-Collins received her Ph.D. from MIT studying protein folding and aggregation in the laboratory of Jonathan King. Professor Kosinski-Collins completed a postdoc in Graham Walker’s HHMI Education Group contributing to the development of tools, such as StarBiochem, for teaching undergraduate biology courses and interactive exercises for Experimental Biology (MIT course 7.02) and Introductory Biology (MIT course 7.01). At Brandeis, Professor Kosinski-Collins has redesigned and taught a variety of courses including the introductory biology laboratory series, non-majors courses on protein folding diseases, graduate classes in protein structure and molecular biology and education courses on assessment and learning in science education.
