Robert Eoff
Robert Eoff, PhD, is a professor of biochemistry at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. Member Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute. DNA replication is a complex and perilous undertaking for the cell because the risk of incurring insults to the genome is greatest when the double-helix is unwound for copying. My research team studies what happens […]
