Biography
Ph.D., Lehigh University
Current Research
Dissertation, “A Molecular-Level View of the Sorting of Lipidated Peptides and the Origin of Cholesterol’s Condensing Effect in Fluid Bilayers”
Studying lateral organization of lipids in model membranes, using liposomes produced byextrusion and sonication techniques. Synthesized, purified, and characterized phospholipids, sterols, and small peptides for nearest neighbor recognition (NNR) experiments
