Martin Lawrence is awarded the 2009 Charles and Nora L. Wiley Award for Meritorious Research and Creativity
Martin Lawrence, professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry,
has won this year's Charles and Nora L. Wiley Faculty Awards for Meritorious Research and Creativity.
Lawrence is a pioneer in archaeal virus proteins, a craftsman in the art of crystallography and a prolific contributor to scientific publications. He has distinguished himself over the past decade with his work in X-ray crystallography of biological macromolecules, especially virus proteins and proteins related to iron homeostasis. While his recent work on Steap proteins represents a major advance in the field of metalloreductases and human iron homeostasis, his greatest achievement to date is said to be his work on archaeal viruses from extreme environments.
