About
As a postdoctoral scholar in the department of Chemistry at Pennsylvania State University, I researched the role of reversible protein phosphorylation in the de novo purine biosynthetic pathway of HeLa cervical cancer cells.
Prior to this, during graduate school, I investigated mechanisms of enzyme regulation in the freeze-tolerant wood frog, Rana sylvatica. I focused primarily on enzymes involved in adenylate metabolism, energy metabolism, and glucose metabolism (glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway). I also worked on the protein kinases and phosphatases that potentially regulate these enzymes.
I originally hail from Montreal, Quebec, Canada, and spent four years in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada while working on my doctoral degree. I am a biochemist and am eventually seeking to work in that field at an academic institute.
