Thomas Grant tgrant@hwi.buffalo.edu |
Degree: B.S.
in Mathematical Physics, University at Buffalo. Lab affiliation: Dr. Snell Research Interests: My research focuses on the development of Small Angle X-ray Scattering in conjunction with X-ray diffraction to study protein complexes in solution as well as using SAXS to study proteins that are recalcitrant to crystallization. |

Zachary Miknis |
Degrees: B.
S. Biology &
B. A. Philosophy, University of Scranton Lab affiliation: Dr. Schultz Research Interests:My research focuses on the dimerization interface, RNA binding surface and biological role of non-structural protein 9 from the SARS coronavirus. Additionally, I am interested in host-virus protein contacts between infected cells and SARS-CoV, specifically those between the Orf6 protein of SARS and human karyopharin alpha 2 (a nuclear import protein). |

Degree:
B.S. Biology, The Rochester Institute of Technology Lab affiliation: Dr. Malkowski Research Interests: "X-ray crystallographic structure & functional analysis of integral membrane proteins involved in eicosanoid biosynthesis. Specifically, the formation of prostaglandins, leukotrienes & lipoxins from 20-carbon polyunsaturated fatty acid precursors via the regulatory enzymes cyclooxygenase & lipoxygenase. This research has pharmacological applications in tissue & organ biology; inflammation, pain & arthritis; Alzheimer's & Parkinson’s disease; cystic fibrosis & cancer." |
