Research Education Publication Lab CV and Contact


I am looking for motivated students interested in exciting projects about molecular understanding of lipid-protein interaction and spatio-temporal organization. If you are interested in any of these key terms, the project might match your interest: biophysical chemistry, biochemistry, fluorescence imaging, image analysis, kinetics and equilibrium modeling, protein chemistry, protein expression in bacteria and purificaition, lipid chemistry, in vitro reconstitution, and phase behavior. Students with good work ethics, proof of academic execellence and a goal to continue studying or teaching science will be considered with priority, but all interested students are welcome to talk to me about the research opportunity.
