Welcome to the Braselmann Lab
What we study
We investigate biochemistry in living cells, with the goal to understand how cellular perturbations alter biochemical processes in healthy and disease states. We are especially interested in probing dynamics of RNAs and proteins on a single cell level over time. How, when and where can we ‘see’ particular biomolecules within the cell, and what can we learn about the underlying biochemical process?
Who we are
We are a team of interdisciplinary scientists in the Chemistry Department at Georgetown University, located in Regents Hall. We combine traditional biochemistry with fluorescence microscopy, biophysical tools and chemical biology approaches to investigate biochemistry in live cells.
