Principal Investigator
- Peter Chien, Ph.D.
Current Lab Members
Postdoctoral Researchers
Graduate students
Graduate training and education is a crucial aspect of our laboratory culture. Here are our current students:
- Joanne Lau (Doctoral Student, Micro Program) is currently identifying regions of ClpXP regulators critical for their function.
- Jing Liu (Doctoral Student, MCB) is studying how DnaA, the initiator of DNA replication is degraded.
- Robert Vass (Doctoral Student, MCB) is discovering how ClpXP processes essential replication factors.
- Kamal Joshi (Doctoral Student, MCB) is defining how hierarchies of adaptors generate substrate specificity.
- Lisa Hernandez Alicea (Doctoral Student, MCB) is determining how ClpXP extracts membrane proteins.
- Rilee Zeinert (Doctoral Student, MCB) is studying the Lon protease.
Undergraduate students
Many of us gained our passion for science through undergraduate experiences, we are thrilled to host these students:
EXTRAS
- Laura I Francis (senior advisor) - provides needed guidance, insight, and general sanity.
