Professor Sean J. Elliott Joins Chemistry Department
Professor Sean J. Elliott (Inorganic Chemistry) joined our faculty in Fall 2002. Sean received his B.A. summa cum laude from Amherst College in 1994 in Chemistry and English. He received his Ph.D. with Sunney Chan at Caltech 2000, for his work on the enzymology and biophysical characterization of the copper centers of particulate methane monooxygenase. Sean comes to us most recents from his postdoctoral studies at the University of Oxford, where he worked with Professor Fraser Armstrong in the Inorganic Chemistry Laboratory (2000-2002). There he used the technique of protein film voltammetry to probe the electron transfer mechanisms of respiratory and oxidoreductase enzymes. We are very pleased to have Dr. Elliott as the newest member of the Chemistry Department.
