Li Zhao Laboratory of Evolutionary Genetics and Genomics. -Studied the dynamics and functions of evolutionary young genes including de novo genes. -Skilled in single-cell sample preparation, library preparation, sequencing analysis, and Drosophila genetics among other molecular biology techniques.
Li Zhao Laboratory of Evolutionary Genetics and Genomics -Maintained Drosophila and chemical inventories.
Principal Investigator: Eric Eberhardt, PhD I performed proteomic analysis on heat shock response in E. coli. I utilized two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and LC-MS/MS to understand how heat shock affected protein expression.
Provide peer tutoring to general chemistry students. Roles include making weekly review sheets, holding weekly problem-solving sessions and office hours, and assisting in laboratory reports. Additionally a tutor in organic chemistry and biochemistry.
Research Experience for Undergraduates in Chemical Biology Principal Investigator: Nate Traaseth, PhD I developed high-yield protein purification procedures for juxta-membrane domain peptide of FGFR and investigated the binding affinity of the four FGFR isoforms to the PTB domain of FRS2alpha using NMR.
Summer Undergraduate Research Program in Molecular Pharmacology Principal Investigator: Thomas Smithgall, PhD I investigated the role of an unstructured domain in the inhibition of Fgr, a non-receptor tyrosine kinase, by a novel drug.
