简介

Dr. Evgenii Kovrigin (Evgueni Kovriguine) obtained his doctoral degree in Chemistry from the Engelhardt Institute of Molecular Biology (Moscow, Russia) in 1999. His doctoral studies of protein thermodynamics in mixed solvents (at the Institute of Protein Research, Pushchino, Russia) brought him "Microcal Young Scientist Award 1999" presented to him at 2nd International Conference on Applications of Biocalorimetry 1999 (Halle/Saale., Germany). Evgenii's post-doctoral work at UT Southwestern, Dallas and Yale University, New Haven was focused on determination of tertiary structure and dynamic behavior of proteins by means of NMR spectroscopy. From 2006 to 2011, Evgenii was on faculty at the Biochemistry Department of the Medical College of Wisconsin where he focused on dynamics and interactions of proteins involved in cancer signaling pathways (Ras superfamily). He joined the Chemistry Department of Marquette University in the fall of 2011.
