The McAtamney Lab at Mount Holyoke College is broadly interested in natural products (NPs), which are molecules produced by living organisms such as bacteria or fungi. We use analytical techniques such as LC-MS/MS and NMR to identify and characterize bioactive compounds from microbial samples. Check out the "Research" tab for info about current projects.
Dr. McAtamney started at MHC in summer 2026, and they have been working on starting up the lab since they arrived. See below some recent news from the lab.
