Getzoff, Elizabeth D.
aims to characterize functionally important protein conformational states by coupling crystallography, spectroscopy, molecular biology and computational analyses, and to apply that knowledge to protein and inhibitor design for key biological processes, including photoactivity, electron transfer, and enzyme catalysis.
Heeb, Mary J.
examines the biochemistry and mechanism of action of novel anticoagulant molecules like protein Z and protein S, which may be valuable targets for intervention in thrombotic and vascular diseases.
Milner, Richard Richard
uses a combination of mouse models and tissue culture cell–based assays to examine the role of fibronectin and endothelial fibronectin receptors in promoting cerebral angiogenesis during cerebral hypoxia and ischemia.
