Elaine M Marzluff

Professor

Breid-McFarland Professor of Science

Offices, Departments, or Centers: Biological Chemistry , Chemistry , Policy Studies , Academic Affairs and Dean of the College ,

Professor Marzluff teaches Physical Chemistry (CHM 363, 364), General Chemistry (CHM 129), Inorganic & Analytical Chemistry (CHM 210) as well as the Policy Studies seminar (PST320) and the Advanced Policy Research course (PST 420). Professor Marzluff's research focuses on the structure and dynamics of peptides and proteins in both solution and gas phase. With support from NSF-TUES program, she is working to develop modular curricular materials for physical chemistry that introduce students to kinetics, quantum mechanics and spectroscopy using a context-rich pedagogy.
