Eva Ge
Assistant Professor
Chemistry
Education:
- B.A. Chemistry and Chemical Biology, Cornell University
- Ph.D. Chemistry, Princeton University
- Postdoctoral Scholar, University of California Berkeley
Field of Interest:
- Bioinorganic chemistry
- Chemical biology, peptide and protein chemistry
- Enzymology
Research Focus:
The Ge group is interested in the chemistry and biology of modified proteins, specifically the crosstalk between covalent protein posttranslational modifications (PTMs) and metal binding, and how this crosstalk contributes to human health and the development of disease states such as cancer and neurodegeneration. Research will combine techniques in peptide and protein chemistry, biochemistry (including air-free), enzymology, and cell biology.
