Research Assistant Professor

Originally trained as a biophysicist, Dr. Pokidysheva has always been fascinated by the complexity of living biological systems. She gained training in a number of structural techniques (NMR and cryo-EM reconstructions) as well as experience in mouse models. Her major research interests are extracellular matrix (ECM) organization and ECM alterations in disease processes, particularly in collagen and its posttranslational modifications.
