My work in the Nocera group has two primary, unrelated aims. The first aim is to determine the relationship between the structure of ribonucleotide reductase and it's mechanism, which is believed to be driven by proton coupled electron transfer. In another project, I am working to gain new information about the structure of the group's cobalt-phosphate oxygen evolving catalyst.
