This week's Provost Forum, presented by Dr. Laura K. Stultz, is entitled "Using Mass Spectrometry to Find the Biological Targets of an Anti-Cancer Drug". Dr. Stultz, who has been at the College since 1997, is part of the chemistry faculty at Birmingham-Southern and routinely teaches several lecture and lab courses, including CH 149 (Chemical Principles) and CH 306 (Inorganic Chemistry).
The seminar, which concerns specific chemical techniques to determining specific properties of anti-cancer compounds, falls right into place with Dr. Stultz's academic interests, including bioinorganic chemistry, material science, and transition metal chemistry. Dr. Stultz has worked closely with Dr. Pamela Hanson of the Biology department before on metal-based anti-cancer complexes, including KP1019.
This Provost Forum will take place during Common Hour (11 a.m. to 12 p.m.) in the Norton Theater, this Thursday, 3/14. If you have a special interest in the science behind new revolutions in medical technology, don't forget to make a note in your schedule to attend!
