(An event) Featuring Dr. Mark Banaszak Holl, professor of Chemistry and Macromolecular Science and Engineering and Associate Vice President for Research at the University of Michigan.
The Nanoscale Structure of Type I Collagen: Tissue Dependence and Relationship to Disease
Dallas, TX | Posted on January 20th, 2010
Osteoporosis indicates that estrogen depletion causes changes in protein structure in addition to the loss of bone density. Data examining the D-Axial spacing as function of tissue type (bone, dentin, and tendon) will be presented.
Dr. Banaszak Holl is a member of the Programs in Applied Physics and Biophysics and has a long-standing research affiliation with the Michigan Nanotechnology Institute for Medicine and Biological Sciences. He received IBM Research Partnership Awards in 1997 and 1998; an Alfred P. Sloan Fellowship in 1999; and was elected as a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 2009. He was recently appointed to the advisory board for the American Chemical Society journal, "Organometallics."
