Assistant Professor
- Department of Biochemistry
- College of Agriculture and Life Sciences
Synopsis:
The Brown lab specializes in molecular modeling, applied data science, and experiential education in the lab, classroom, and with industry partnerships.
Description:
Dr. Brown's lab uses computational modeling to answer biological questions and aid in drug discovery. The lab applies computational molecular modeling to elucidate the relationship between structure, function, and dynamics of biomolecules. Several biomolecular systems under investigation include the amyloid beta-peptide, G-protein coupled receptors, HIV envelope glycoprotein, and sphingosine kinases.
Dr. Brown also studies the pedagogy surrounding student experiential learning and critical thinking, as well as how to train learners in data science from a multi-disciplinary lens.
