Scientific Focus
Current Research Interests
Hepatitis C virology, bio-organic chemistry, and chemical biology. My current work focuses on probing the interaction between the NS5A nonstructural protein of HCV and PIP2, a membrane lipid found in all cells. Disruption of this interaction appears to prevent HCV from replicating.
