I was trained in mass spectrometry during my graduate studies at Baylor, and I have been using my expertise in mass spec to help study the DNA damage response pathway. My lab was among the first to report that SMC1 is involved in the checkpoint pathway, and since then I have continued to look at the role of the SMC family in DNA damage and repair.
