Associate Professor Elizabeth Amin (Medicinal Chemistry) is featured in the 2013 Annual Report from the College of Pharmacy. Professor Amin specializes in the design of countermeasures to chemical and biological warfare agents. The Amin group is pursuing four related major research areas: the mechanisms of the anthrax lethal toxin factor; designing ricin toxin A inhibitors; developing enzyme-based environmental cleanup agents; and developing new computational schemes for modeling energy surfaces in large metal-bearing molecules.
A description of the Amin group’s work at MSI, along with a bibliography of publications, can be found on their abstract page.
