Research interests
My research interests involve studying protein conformational change. Using a combination of biochemical, biophysical and single-molecule techniques, we can begin to understand the complex ways in which proteins are able to regulate their properties. Using protein engineering tools, such as directed evolution and other high throughput technologies, we can better understand protein conformational changes, as well as conformational dynamics. This work sheds new light on biological function and pathological dysfunction. This knowledge and these tools are used to design advanced biotechnologies addressing problems in medicine, biosensing and nanotechnology.
