Ragsdale Lab

We study processes that are important in the global carbon cycle, basis energy sciences, and biomedical problems. Our work focuses on microbial metabolism of carbon dioxide and methane; the role of metal ions in biology; regulation of metabolism by redox, heme, and carbon monoxide. Because of the dwindling and erratic supply of helium, we installed a He recycling system for use in cryogenic experiments. {Previously certified platinum: July 21, 2017}
