Educational Outreach
Tara
Synthesis and processing of DOS chemical libraries.
Mentor: Anita Vrcic
The Chemical Biology platform creates collections of chemical compounds that can be screened for biological activities. Tara worked within the Cleavage & Formatting group, which processes all of these compounds from synthesis to analysis.
