Biochemistry Research at Rose-Hulman

A travel grant from the Merck Institute for Science Education funded a trip to the 233rd National ACS Meeting in Chicago in March, 2007. Photos from this trip may be found here.

Thanks to a National Science Foundation Major Research Instrumentation grant, Rose-Hulman has
a new Fluorolog-Tau-3 spectrofluorometer.

Rose-Hulman has a biochemistry laboratory (FL-110),
	equipped with a chromatography refrigerator, smaller refrigerators, and a large shaking incubator for growing bacteria,
with other, smaller, instruments for working with DNA and proteins,
	and with a new Sorvall centrifuge, located in the laboratory space next door.

I have two main projects.

1) Research concerning the human estrogen receptor hormone binding domain.
ER HBD Model

2) Research concerning the control of carbohydrate metabolism.

Anyone interested in performing biochemical research at Rose-Hulman should come by my office (FL-109) or contact me by phone (x8406) or by email (brandt@rose-hulman.edu).
