Research

Find out about research in the Provost lab, find links and information on cell motility, ion transport, cancer cell invasion & metastasis, vaccine development and protein-protein interactions. Working in the lab means you will be exposed to working with DNA, RNA, Proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, e.coli and mammalian cells.

Our long time important and continuing collaboration with the research laboratory of Dr. Mark Wallert at Bemidji State University (BSU - go beavers), is an exciting opportunity for students from both groups to expand their experiences and coordinate cutting edge research projects.

See links below for information and videos on our research, protocols for research, how to use equipment and techniques. I make this website publically availible. If you find it interesting or helpful please let me know. If you have suggestions, edits or things you think can be added, let me know too. As a protocol hoarder I like to add to the electronic version of a science junk drawer filled with cool and useful "things".
