Congratulations to Dr. Merve Demir!
A big belated congratulations to Dr. Merve Demir on filing her dissertation! Her research has helped further our understanding of the mechanisms and structures involved in MutY’s identification of the OG lesion and the excision of the misincorporated adenine. We wish her the best of luck as she continues her research adventures as a Postdoctoral Associate at the Conrad Prebys Center at SBP!
Congratulations to Professor Sheila David on Receiving the 2022 Education Award

- New, exhaustive study probes hidden history of horses in the American West March 30, 2023Indigenous peoples as far north as Wyoming and Idaho may have begun to care for horses by the first half of the 17th Century, according to a new study by researchers from 15 countries and multiple Native American groups.
- Astronomers witness the birth of a very distant cluster of galaxies from the early Universe March 30, 2023Astronomers have discovered a large reservoir of hot gas in the still-forming galaxy cluster around the Spiderweb galaxy -- the most distant detection of such hot gas yet. Galaxy clusters are some of the largest objects known in the Universe and this result further reveals just how early these structures begin to form.
- Deep ocean currents around Antarctica headed for collapse, study finds March 30, 2023Antarctic circulation could slow by more than 40 per cent over the next three decades, with significant implications for the oceans and the climate.
- Brightest gamma-ray burst ever observed reveals new mysteries of cosmic explosions March 28, 2023Scientists believe the gamma-ray emission, which lasted over 300 seconds, is the birth cry of a black hole, formed as the core of a massive and rapidly spinning star collapses under its own weight.
- Temperature of a rocky exoplanet measured March 27, 2023An international team of researchers has used NASA's James Webb Space Telescope to measure the temperature of the rocky exoplanet TRAPPIST-1 b. The measurement is based on the planet's thermal emission: heat energy given off in the form of infrared light detected by Webb's Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI). The result indicates that the planet's dayside has […]
