Why Is Elizabeth Nolan Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Elizabeth Marie Nolan is an American chemist and associate professor at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Early life and education Nolan was born in Niskayuna, New York. She studied at Smith College, where she majored in chemistry and graduated magna cum laude in 2000. During her undergraduate studies she minored in music and worked with Robert Linck on computational chemistry. She studied the stereoelectronic effects in substituted alkanes. Nolan was a member of Phi Beta Kappa. She was awarded a Fulbright Program Scholarship and moved to France to study siderophore-iron complexes. Nolan moved to Massachusetts Institute of Technology for her graduate studies, where she was supervised by Stephen J. Lippard. She developed small molecule fluorescent sensors to monitor for zinc in neurobiology and mercury in aqueous solutions. Together they filed a patent for Fluorescein-based metal sensors. Nolan was a postdoctoral scientist at the Harvard Medical School, working with Christopher T. Walsh on the biosynthetic assembly of microcin E492m. Microcin E492m is an antibiotic peptide that can target Gram-negative bacteria which express siderophore transporters. She was awarded a $2.5 million National Institutes of Health grant in 2010 to study antibacterial peptides and zinc in innate immunity. In 2011 she contributed to the book Letters to a Young Chemist.
