Welcome to the Seebald lab!
.
The Seebald lab is interested in exploring the reactivity of 2H-azirine functional groups as reactive moieties in biological probes and covalent inhibitors. Overall we plan to employ these reactive small molecules towards studying bacterial glycosylation. This research is in the field of "chemical biology," which is focused on employing strategic synthesis of small molecules to aid us with answering biological questions.
We use techniques such as organic synthesis, chromatography and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR).

We took a group from the lab to the 87th annual ISCC (Intercollegiate Student Chemists Convention). Huge congratulations to Hannah Harrison and Xinnuo Chen for getting honorable mentions in their organic sessions! Also, big congratulations to the Shepard group for their impressive sweep with the inorganic awards!
