Laura received her bachelors degree in chemistry from Montana State University before coming to CU and joining the Pardi lab in May of 2009. She is currently working on two projects involving protein NMR. A collaborative study of Red Flourescent Protein (RFP) aims to contribute to the development of brighter and more photostable RFPs through the investigation of structure and dynamics of various mutants of RFPs. Fluorescent proteins are extremely...
