Quinnipiac University
Professor of Biology
Hamden, CT USA
2016 - Present
Dr. Lise Thomas focuses on molecular and cellular neuroscience. At Quinnipiac, her teaching is primarily in Neurobiology and the Graduate Protein Methods Laboratory.
Dr. Thomas completed a B.A. with double majors in Biology and Mathematics from Swarthmore College, a M.S. in Pharmacology from University of Colorado Health Sciences Center, a Ph.D. in Neuroscience from Harvard University, and postdoctoral research in Biochemistry at Brandeis University.
Research in the Thomas lab currently focuses on the molecular mechanisms of cell signaling, identifying novel proteins that interact with the Mitogen-Activated Kinases (MAP) kinases. Her lab uses genetic and biochemical approaches, with the baker's yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a model organism.
