Dr. Divya Prakash. an assistant professor at the School of Chemical and Biomolecular Science at Southern Illinois University-Carbondale . Prior to this, he served as an Assistant Research Professor at Penn State University, where he also completed his postdoctoral training in the laboratory.
Dr. Prakash's lab We employ an interdisciplinary approach to examine processes that have a significant impact on the global carbon cycle, alternative energy, and biomedicine. We work at the interfaces between chemistry, anaerobic microbiology, and biophysics and studying process that are important in the global carbon cycle, alternative energy, and biomedicine. A major focus of our research is on developing a molecular understanding of the proteins involved in electron transport coupled with energy conservation and stress response in anaerobic microbes. The research questions we address in my lab are addressed using a broad spectrum of research methods, including molecular biology, genetics, protein expression and purification, spectroscopy, transient state kinetics, and structural biology.
