Personal profile

Research interests

Dr. dela Cerna earned his PhD at the University of Louisville School of Medicine under the mentorship of Dr. Donghan Lee and Dr. Mike Sabo, leaders in the use of high-power NMR to study protein solution dynamics. He joined the Department of Biochemistry, Chemistry, and Physics at Georgia Southern immediately after graduation in August 2022. His lab is broadly interested in protein biochemistry - from structure-based drug discovery to fundamental studies of protein structure-function-dynamics. The dela Cerna lab is always eager to collaborate on any area involving proteins!
