A subset of these oncogenic mutants possess unique conformations and we are investigating how these structural changes impart functional changes in signaling and potential druggability.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_xxxfluidplugincopy\"><span class=\"x_xxxcontentpasted0\"><b>What was your background before coming to BCBP?<\/b><\/span><span class=\"x_xxxcontentpasted0\"><\/p>\n<p>I received my PhD in Chemistry from NC State in 2017. I studied metalloenzymatic mechanisms and my lab identified that substrate oxidation from Dehaloperoxidase occurred via 4 mechanisms. I introduced X-ray crystallographic efforts to the Ghiladi lab and we observed subtle structural differences amongst substrate binding sites directing which mechanism oxidation occurred. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_xxxfluidplugincopy\"><span class=\"x_xxxcontentpasted0\"><b>What motivates you to do what you do?<\/b><\/span><span class=\"x_xxxcontentpasted0\"><\/p>\n<p><\/span><span class=\"x_xxxcontentpasted0\">The science. I actually went to graduate school to learn NMR, but life went down another amazing path. So when the opportunity to work with Dr. Campbell arose, I jumped on it and have no regrets. However, the potential impact of my projects in the Campbell lab could be game-changing for patients with cancers driven by RAS Q61 mutants. This greatly enhances the value of my investigations to above my personal interest of structural biology and love of NMR spectroscopy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_xxxfluidplugincopy\"><span class=\"x_xxxcontentpasted0\"><span class=\"x_xxxcontentpasted0\"><b>What have been some of your best experiences with BCBP?<\/b><\/span><span class=\"x_xxxcontentpasted0\">\u00a0<\/span><b><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-24892 size-medium alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/biochem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/795\/2023\/01\/Campbell-lab_winter-2022-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Campbell lab group taken in winter 2022\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/biochem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/795\/2023\/01\/Campbell-lab_winter-2022-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/biochem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/795\/2023\/01\/Campbell-lab_winter-2022-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/biochem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/795\/2023\/01\/Campbell-lab_winter-2022-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/biochem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/795\/2023\/01\/Campbell-lab_winter-2022-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/biochem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/795\/2023\/01\/Campbell-lab_winter-2022-600x800.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/biochem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/795\/2023\/01\/Campbell-lab_winter-2022-560x747.jpg 560w, https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/biochem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/795\/2023\/01\/Campbell-lab_winter-2022-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_xxxfluidplugincopy\"><span class=\"x_xxxcontentpasted0\">The collaborative environment is by far my best experience.
