The QBI Online Seminar Series is presenting Jennifer Kavran, an assistant professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the Bloomberg School of Public Health at Johns Hopkins University. Dr. Kavran's lab is focused on understanding the regulation of the Hippo core kinase cassette using a multiprong approach including cell biology, enzymology, biophysics, and structural biology. Her long-term goal is to understand the molecular mechanisms that regulate signal transduction pathways.
The QBI Online Seminar Series is presenting Raluca Gordan, an associate professor in the Center for Genomic and Computational Biology at Duke University. She received her PhD degree from Duke University in 2009, followed by postdoctoral training at the Harvard Medical School.
Wednesday, February 24, 2021 - 11:00 am to 12:00 pm
Craig Markin is a postdoctoral fellow working jointly with Professors Dan Herschlag and Polly Fordyce at Stanford University, where he has developed HT-MEK (High-Throughput Microfluidic Enzyme Kinetics), a novel microfluidics-based assay to express, purify, and quantitatively measure libraries of >1000 enzyme variants across a battery of functional parameters. Craig performed his graduate work with Prof.
