Background:

When and where you received your PhD
Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, 1977

Where you did your postdoc
Department of Crystallography, University of Pittsburgh, 1981

Research:

Determination and analysis of structure-function relationships in macromolecules of biological interest, including thiamin diphosphate dependent enzymes, immunoglobulins, bacterial toxins, digestive enzymes and other proteins. X-Ray Crystallography is the primary method employed.

Development of techniques for the determination and analysis of macromolecular crystal structures.

Application /development of computing techniques and algorithms for understanding biological function on a molecular level.
