Background:

    Dr. Brummel received her Ph.D. in 1997 from the Department of Biomedicinal Chemistry at the University of Maryland at Baltimore. Her graduate work involved the design and synthesis of cyclodiene insecticide biosensors and fluorescent probes. She then pursued a postdoctoral fellowship in blood coagulation in Dr. Kenneth G. Mann's laboratory. Her multi-disciplinary approach to research allowed her to develop analytical systems to determine how clot formation occurs in non-anticoagulated whole blood. One result of this research shows how fibrin formation is an integrated process. She joined the faculty of Biochemistry in 2001.
