Profiles in "Molecular Biology" Expertise Area

  • Frasch has developed new assays to examine the rotation of single molecules of molecular motor proteins under a microscope.
  • Goldstein studies genes involved in developmental processes and in learning and memory. His focus is communication of this information and other educational material in molecular biology and molecular genetics.
  • An Associate Professor in the School of Life Sciences and The Shufeldt School of Medicine and Medical Engineering. My research explores the molecular mechanisms of muscle development and regeneration.
  • Mor is a molecular biologist and biochemist whose research focuses on using plants to produce useful and therapeutic polypeptides, proteins and enzymes.
  • Hogue is a virologist who studies how coronaviruses, a large family of RNA viruses, that includes severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), assemble and cause disease.
  • Lake is a cellular and molecular immunologist who is working on biologic inhibitors of tumor cell metastasis. He is also developing a new test for Valley Fever that provides a diagnosis for patients with acute disease.
  • Brent Nannenga associate professor of chemical engineering in SEMTE. His research focuses on method development and new applications of structural biology and protein engineering
  • Birge is a bacterial geneticist whose research interests were the genetics of Escherichia coli and its viruses. He is no longer active in that field but penned the textbook Bacterial and Bacteriophage Genetics.
