“Metal Ions in Chemistry and Biology”: Our research interests lie in the broad field of inorganic chemistry as it interfaces with biological and medicinal chemistry. One project will be directed toward designing metal chelators as chemotherapeutics for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Two other areas will focus on utilizing metal peptide complexes as catalysts for selective oxidative transformations and as agents for detoxification of hydrogen peroxide. Students in our group will engage in synthetic chemistry (organic and inorganic syntheses), physical methods (NMR, EPR, IR, CD, and UV-vis spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and X-ray crystallography), as well as biological techniques (mammalian cell culture and analysis).
