katie henzler-wildman



Dr. Katherine Henzler-Wildman joins the faculty of the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics this fall as Assistant Professor. Katie’s laboratory studies the conformational dynamics of proteins, using NMR to examine different motional modes during enzyme turnover. She is investigating the dynamics of the bacterial drug-metabolite transporter EmrE in detergent micelles and artificial bilayers to identify motions that are linked to the mechanism of active transport. Welcome to Katie, husband Dr. Scott Wildman, and daughter, Martha.
