Research Team
Matthew Brutus Matthew Brutus is using Resveratrol as his small molecule for the molecular modelling project. He is also learning Python, html, and Cytoscape for research analysis. Also, he is a webmaster for the lab.
Elaina Vasella Elaina is using Tamoxifen as her small molecule for the molecular modelling project. She is also in charge of gathering data for the nerve conduction study, and she also helping to prepare a nerve conduction study.
Juan Maldonado Juan is using Pterostilbene as his small molecule for the molecular modelling project. He is also learning Python, html, and Cytoscape for research analysis. He is also preparing the IRB for research with Polycythemia Vera.
Chris Corbo Chris is using Hydroxyurea as his small molecule for the molecular modelling project. He is also one of the senior undergraduate research members in the lab and trains many of the other students.
Nicholas Brutus Nicholas is using Dexamethasone as his small molecule for the molecular modelling project.
Kernosa Kernosa is using Pinostilbene as her small molecule for the molecular modelling project.
Nathalie Nathalie is using 4-Methoxyresveratrol as her small molecule for the molecular modelling project.
Ashkan Ashkan is using polydatin as his small molecule for the molecular modelling project.
Alexa Alexa is using Oxyresveratrol as her small molecule for the molecular modelling project.
Z'Dhane Z'Dhane is using trans-stilbene as his small molecule for the molecular modelling project.
Jazmin Jazmin is using Gnetol as her small molecule for the molecular modelling project.
Amelia Amelia is using Hydroxyresveratrol as her small molecule for the molecular modelling project.
Katie Donnelly Katie is using Pelargonidin as her small molecule for the molecular modelling project. She is also learning Python, html, and Cytoscape for research analysis.
Wendy Escobar Wendy is using Delphinidin as her small molecule for the molecular modelling project. he is also learning Python, html, and Cytoscape for research analysis.
Kristoffer Kaiser Kris is using Petunidin as his small molecule for the molecular modelling project. He is also learning Python, html, and Cytoscape for research analysis.
Jeennali Shah Jeennali is using Malvidin as his small molecule for the molecular modelling project.
Shevon Rose Shevon is using Peonodin as his small molecule for the molecular modelling project. He is also learning him Python, html, and Cytoscape for research analysis. In addition, he is updating our database of small molecules to do future molecular modelling projects with.
Nil Nil is using Hispidin as his small molecule for the molecular modelling project.
Christina Buchanan Christina is working on how Dexamethasone and 17-Beta-estradiol bind to fibroblasts and odontoblasts. She is also working on organizing the study on Polycythemia Vera.
Justin Derosena Justin is involved in molecular modelling research. He is also a webmaster for the lab.
Bernard Essuman Bernard is involved in development of new protocols for our molecular modelling research.
John Sansone John is currently involved in the professional science writing of our posters, publications, proposal writing, and he is beginning to learn how to do molecular modeling for Polycythemia Vera.
Nathan Losieau Nathan is using Autodesk Inventor to model the stress and strain behavior that the nano 3D printed materials with (tubules that mimic dentin) will exhibit when composed of Polylactic Acid (PLA) as compared to our control which is Dentin. He is doing this to determine the toughness of this polymer to see if it would withstand the forces exerted on a third molar. This scaffold has the application to serve as a dentinal bridge for direct dental pulp capping.
Mohammad Siddiqui He is working on the nano-micro 3D printing project for repairing dentin.
Keisy Sanchez Keisy is involved in orgnazing our protocols, and development of new protocols with Python and Cytoscape.
Conrad Dobrowlski Conrad is helping with the professional science writing and data analysis of the small molecules for Polycythemia Vera.
Sharuk Noor Ali Sharuk is working Kaempferol as her small molecule for the molecular modeling project for Polycythemia Vera. She is also learning how to prepare budgets for proposals. In addition, she is learning how to apply Python to research.
