What I do

I am a physician-scientist interested in understanding how the human body senses and responds to external stimuli. My research focuses on the largest group of drug targets in the human body, the G protein coupled receptors. We aim to understand the most basic principles of these receptors in order to develop new medications that are both more effective and have decreased side effects.

 

Departmental research area

chemical biology and medicinal chemistry
protein and cellular engineering

My research expertise

G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), structural biology, signaling, protein dynamics
