RESEARCH EXPERIENCE
. Masters Thesis, IUP
Jan 2011-July 2012
Probing conformational changes in the srs2 helicase: a proposed
intrinsically unstructured protein
C-terminal region of Srs2 has been predicted to have a
disordered structure
Srs2 adopts multiple functions in homologous recombination
(HR)
Srs2 interacts with several proteins
i.e. Rad 51 translocase
proposed: C-terminus conformational change with Rad 51
interaction
. Slippery Rock University
Aug 2009-May 2010
Studied the interactions between CUB 74 and WI-38 in an antigen-
free environment
Revitalized CUB 74 antibody producing cells
Determined best time to harvest CUB 74
Typed the antibody using alkaline phosphatase ELISA
Isolated the CUB 74 through protein A column chromatography
Ran attachment assays to determine how the CUB 74 antibody
interacts with the WI-38 fibroblast
. Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, VA
May-Aug 2008
Constructed platinum electrodes coated with iridium oxide
Deposited iridium oxide on platinum electrodes through
chronoamperometry
Tested for layer with cyclic voltammetry
Tested pH dependence of electrodes with open circuit
potential-time
Applied electrodes to a micro-channel
