Postdoctoral Research Fellowships in Chemistry

Cynthia M. Dupureur博士被授予化学博士后奖学金。Dupureur博士在俄亥俄州立大学获得博士学位，导师是蔡明道教授。她打算在加州理工学院与杰奎琳·巴顿教授继续她的研究。在巴顿的实验室里，她将学习许多操纵DNA的技术，并了解金属离子与DNA的相互作用。这将为她的长期职业目标做好准备，她将研究内切酶中的金属离子功能，并设计用于治疗目的的与DNA相互作用的分子。化学博士后奖学金项目是一项重要的基础设施项目，旨在拓宽新博士的知识和经验，吸引他们从事当代化学研究和教学中有意义的职业。

Dr. Cynthia M. Dupureur has been awarded a Postdoctoral Fellowship in Chemistry. Dr Dupureur's doctoral degree was from Ohio State with Professor Ming-Daw Tsai. She intends to continue her research at CalTech with Professor Jacqueline Barton. In Barton's laboratory she will learn many of the techniques for manipulating DNA and learn about metal ion interactions with DNA. This will prepare her for her long range career goal of studying metal ion function in endonucleases and designing molecules to interact with DNA for therapeutic purposes. %%% The Postdoctoral Fellowships in Chemistry Program is viewed as an important infrastructural program designed to broaden the knowledge and experience of new Ph.D.'s and attract them into meaningful careers in contemporary chemical research and teaching.
