Jonathan Baker

Jonathan Baker Ph.D. Associate Professor; INBRE Principal Investigator/Director; Interim Chair, Department of Pharmacology, Nevada Research We use single molecule techniques (TIR fluorescence microscopy and optical traps) to study how mechanoenzymes like actin and myosin transfer chemical free energy to mechanical work and inversely how they convert mechanical signals into chemical responses. We are particularly interested […]
