Shaun Mahony Associate Professor of Biochemisty and Molecular Biology

Book Title: Introduction to Protein-DNA Interactions: Structure, Thermodynamics, and Bioinformatics

Author: Gary D. Stormo

Selection Statement:

In this book, Dr. Stormo concisely introduces many facets of the research question that my lab studies: How do regulatory proteins find their targets on the genome? I would have loved a book like this when starting my research journey as an engineer who was curious about bioinformatics but who didn’t know much about biology. I hope it will now be useful to students starting their own research journeys, and I hope you find mentors as patient as my own were back then.
