This will us to explore the role of proteins in the intracellular lifecycle of Listeria and establish a novel platform for exploring protein-protein interactions here at Duquesne.
The Heisler lab is excited to be add a new student this upcoming spring, Brianne. She is an undergraduate Biochemistry major interested in getting hands-on experience in a research lab.
The Heisler lab will be adding a new student this upcoming spring, Ryan. He is an undergraduate Biochemistry major with a personal interest in immunology and the immune response. He will join the project focused a family of uncharacterized proteins from Listeria!
The Heisler lab added a new student today, Anastasia. She is a Master’s student in Healthcare Ethics interested in biochemistry and the “challenge that is critically thinking and problem solving”. Her work will be focused a family of uncharacterized proteins from Listeria and helping put the Heisler lab spaces together!
The Heisler lab is excited to welcome our first undergraduate, Megan, to the lab. She is a sophomore biochemistry major who “thoroughly enjoys chemistry and biology” and is interested medicine. Her first project in the lab will be focused on bioinformatic analyses of pathogenic bacteria in addition to helping put the Heisler lab spaces together!
