Nate Hamel (he/him) PhD candidate in the Luger Lab I study how histone and histone like proteins from non-eukaryotic domains of life behave and interact with DNA. I use a combination of structural and biophysical techniques along with good 鈥渙ld-fashioned鈥 biochemistry in the lab to to address the question of where histones may have come from. I am originally from Oregon so being in 欧美口爆视频 still allows me to enjoy skiing, biking, and being outside when I am not in the lab. I came to 欧美口爆视频 Boulder after doing my undergraduate degree in Chemistry at Southern Oregon University where I worked on potential anti-cancer natural products produced by the Oregon Grape. | Kristyn Hayashi听 Kristyn graduated from Johns Hopkins University in 2012 with a B.S. in Molecular & Cellular Biology.
