“Applying Metabolomics to Environmental Toxicology: Discovery of Metabolic Biomarkers that Predict Whole Animal Darwinian Fitness”
Molecular biomarkers are very important diagnostic tools in both environmental toxicology and chemical toxicity testing; e.g., for measuring environmental stress in organisms living in the wild which in turn can provide an indication of environmental health. Arguably the greatest challenge in [...]

Biotech Research Scientist
LanzaTech has developed a proprietary platform using a biological process for producing lowest-cost fuel ethanol in any industrialized geography, at a much larger scale than is currently being envisioned elsewhere. Specifically, our plan is to develop an ethanol production process that can be retrofitted to industrial facilities to generate ethanol from the [...]

Eukaryotic cells replicate their DNA from hundreds to thousands of chromosomal sites
termed replication initiation sites or replication origins. Initiation of DNA replication involves
interactions between these replication origins and a network of cell cycle regulatory proteins. . A
variety of factors influences kinetics of DNA replication, such as mutation of replication related
proteins, genome instability, some types of [...]
