詹姆斯·墨菲博士.D.

Dr. 詹姆斯·墨菲 graduated from 曼哈顿学院 with a BS in 生物学 (Teacher Preparation). 他获得了硕士和博士学位.D. in Biochemistry from the Sackler Institute of the New York University School of Medicine, 1994年毕业. Dr. Murphy joined 全球十大正规网赌下载 the same year.

在过去，奥巴马博士. Murphy has studied both the molecular biology of cancer and the molecular biology of parasitism in insects. These days he focuses on the chemical modification of proteins in peas. 具体来说,博士. Murphy is interested in the effects of deacetylase inhibitors on pea root meristems. This research has resulted in publications, numerous student poster presentations as well as a recent GenBank sequence report for the Vitamin B12 Independent Methionine Synthase mRNA, accession number “KJ890480” that can be found at the website for the National Center for Biotechnology Information. 全球十大正规网赌下载 students have been coauthors on all these reports. 这个顺序将允许博士. Murphy’s group to infer the amino acid sequence of the Methionine Synthase and investigate chemical modification of its amino acids, 比如乙酰化.

Dr. Murphy usually teaches the General 生物学 courses, “Diversity” and “Cell.” As well as the upper level Biochemistry II and Bio seminar.

蕾拉·科普博士.D.

Dr. 莱拉凯普 is currently the 生物学 Coordinator in the Department of 自然科学s and 数学 and is a full professor at 全球十大正规网赌下载. She has been part of the college since 1982. She has previously taught at several institutions including 蒙特克莱尔州立大学, 法利·迪肯森大学, 和乌普萨拉学院. She held positions as a bacteriologist at several hospitals including Flow Memorial Hospital in Denton, Texas and Overlook Hospital in Summit New Jersey.

Dr. 柯普有博士学位.D. in 微生物学 from the Department of 微生物学 and Molecular 生物学 from 罗格斯大学, formerly University of Medicine and Dentistry (UMDNJ), 研究生 School of Biomedical Sciences (1982). Dissertation title: The Molecular Basis for the Biological Activity of the Slime Glycolipoprotein of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain BI, a M.S. in 微生物学 from 北德克萨斯州立大学, Denton, Texas (1970), a B.A. in 生物学 from 弥赛亚大学, Grantham, Pennsylvania. (1968).

全球十大正规网赌下载, she taught many courses including General 生物学, 临床生理学, 解剖学与生理学, 微生物学, 遗传学, Developmental 生物学 and has developed an Immunology course which has been added to the curriculum and which she has taught in the past and continues to teach as needed. Presently she mostly teaches multiple sections of 微生物学 to biology majors and nursing students. She also has transformed the genetics curriculum to reflect multicultural/multiracial issues and introduced a course for non-majors that deals with Biotechnology and Human Affairs.

Most of her research during her graduate studies focused on the investigation of the molecular basis for the pathogenesis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa which has resulted in multiple publications in scientific journals.

She has investigated and cloned the SPO7 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae with Dr. David Kabak at UMDNJ and has presented the results at several scientific meetings.

She has been involved with student research which focuses on bacterial leaf scorch (BLS) of oak trees in Northern NJ. The disease is caused by Xylella fastidiosa bacterium which infects the xylem of the leaves leading to leaf scorching and eventually death of the trees. Samples of oak leaves were collected and PCR analysis was conducted on these samples. The leaves were also analyzed by SEM with positive results for the bacterium.

In 2014 she published a book “Topics in Grief” which could be found on Amazon in honor of her late son David Koepp. She also has a blog TopicsInGrief.com

丽贝卡·沃尔特博士.D.

Dr. Walter has been with 全球十大正规网赌下载 since 2012. The courses she teaches include: 解剖学与生理学 1&2, Biomechanics, and Vertebrate Morphology.

Dr. 沃尔特有博士学位.D. in 生物学 from the 犹他大学. Her graduate thesis was entitled “The Biomechanics of Galloping and Acceleration in Dogs.” She currently uses 全球十大正规网赌下载’s Motion Capture System in her research on the biomechanics of human walking and running.
