Research in my group will use organic synthesis, combinatorial methods, and analytical techniques, such as tandem liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance, to answer biologically relevant questions at the molecular level. We have also established collaborations with a number of other researchers, both at UTK and at other universities, and these interactions have enhanced our ability to explore the underlying chemical component of a variety of biological processes. The figure below gives an overview of the research in our laboratory, and more detailed descriptions of the projects will be posted soon.
