Paul A. Bonvallet
A professor of inorganic and organic chemistry, Bonvallet studies Supramolecular (many-molecular) chemistry and photochemistry (light chemistry), light-emitting organic compounds, and the formulation, response, and applications of swellable organically modified silica (SOMS).
Brett Baker
Brett Baker is the General Chemistry Laboratory Coordinator who manages the chemicals and equipment for Chemistry 112, General Chemistry II, Laboratory. He also organizes […]
Rebecca Williams
Interested in conservational biology, Williams studies evolutionary adaptation and physiological acclimation at the population level in Brown bullhead (Ameiurus nebulosus) fish inhabiting polluted and clean regions and uses field expertise and molecular techniques to identify population level differences between clean and polluted site fish.
James West
Studying DNA damage and its link to cancer, neurodegenerative disease, and cardiovascular disease, West’s research utilizes baker’s yeast and mammalian cells to define more clearly how organisms sense and respond to protein-damaging molecules.
Stephanie Strand
Focusing on H. capsulatum, a species of fungus, Strand studies the identification of proteins involved in signal transduction pathways required for H. capsulatum to sense and respond to changes in environmental conditions and the characterization of the distribution of H. capsulatum in the soil of the Ohio-Mississippi River Valley.
Timothy Siegenthaler
Tim Siegenthaler is the Instrument Technician/Machinist primarily serving the Departments of Chemistry, Physics, Biology and Geology. Tim began working at the College on August […]
Erzsebet Regan
Interested in biological systems, Regan works to uncover the principles of coordination between cellular phenotypes at multiple scales of organization and build predictive models of this coordination in health and disease with the ultimate goal of studying aging, cancer progression, and stem cell differentiation and reprogramming.
Julie Pringle
Julie is the Animal Caretaker in the Biology/Neuroscience department.
Ferdinand Nanfack Minkeu
As a biology research technician, Minkeu assists with independent studies in biology and intermediate French courses. He also specializes in mosquito-borne viruses and virology.
William Morgan
Using genomic and bioinformatics approaches, Morgan and his research students investigate how plant pathogens infect host plants at the molecular level; and, as a member of the NIBLSE leadership team, he is helping to establish a network of educators seeking to integrate bioinformatics into life science education.
Jhony Mera
Jhony Mera is the Electronics and Instrument Technician primarily serving the Departments of Chemistry, Physics, and Biology. Jhony began working at the College, August […]
Jennifer Ison
Working with students, Ison explores interests in ecology, conservation biology, and ecological genetics by studying how anthropogenic (i.e., human-induced) alterations to natural areas are impacting native plant populations.
Hilary Edgington
Focusing on population genetics, Edgington studies the evolution of traits in natural populations and phylogenetics, the evolutionary relationships between species.
Nick Brandley
Working with students using both band-winged grasshoppers and human subjects, Brandley seeks to better understand the link between sensory physiology and behavior, primarily studying vision, to examine how differences in sensory physiology limit behaviors and ultimately evolutionary outcomes.
Gregory C. Wiles
Wiles’ primary research interests are in glacial geology, climate change, and tree-ring analysis with projects funded by the National Science Foundation and National Geographic Society. He is also the founder of The College of Wooster Tree Ling Lab, a group of faculty, staff, and students who study tree rings.
