Professor RNA Biochemist
Chemistry & Biochemistry
I am a nucleic acid biochemist who studies RNA thermodynamics with undergraduate students at Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ.
We use several different biophysical methods to characterize small RNA. We are particularly interested in understanding the role of magnesium ions in stabilizing RNA structures.
I am also interested in improving undergraduate teaching. My research in pedagogy focuses on developing student-centered teaching, particularly problem-based service learning, anti-racist teaching, and science outreach.
