intermediates of protein folding and in amyloid formation. A second research focus is on the folding of outer membrane proteins of Gram-negative organisms. Understanding the mechanics of how these proteins fold will help derive new antibiotics. A third arm looks at how the shelf life of pharmaceutical drugs could be extended.

One major research focus is the role of protein misfolding in the onset of amyloidogenic diseases, including dialysis-related amyloidosis, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and Type II diabetes. This has been done with the use of native mass spectrometry, NMR and single molecule methods to characterize
