Haley Deorio
5th Year IPiB Student
Research Bio: My research focuses on understanding the regulatory mechanisms of restarting failed DNA replication reactions in E. coli. By using single-molecule, biochemical, and structural approaches, my work will specifically characterize the PriA-PriB replication restart pathway. |

Molly Dolan
3rd Year IPiB Student
Research Bio: My research examines how DNA replication is restarted after the replication machinery disassociates from the DNA in gram-positive bacteria. I use biochemical assays and Cryo-EM to characterize the interaction between two major proteins in the DNA replication restart pathway. |

Zoe Wetmore
3rd Year IPiB Student
Research Bio: My research in the Keck lab focuses on the process of postreplication ssDNA gap repair in E. coli. I want to further elucidate how the proteins involved in initiating ssDNA gap repair interact with each other by using different biochemical and structural approaches. |
