Mycological musings
Published:
I’ve recently acquired the time to explore a new interest. More importantly, two friends who are game for a hobby that I’d intended to start years ago: mushroom hunting. The accumulated drive has carved into my schedule like the Missoula floods carved North Am´erica from Minnesota through the PNW. Alas, my second post is /not/ an enzdes tutorial just yet. I am making progress towards the enzdes project: I’m reading a few papers on emerging pollutants of concern [1] and microplastic degradation, [2] when I came across this passage in [2]:
Enzyme design: watch this space?

I haven’t ever blogged publically before, but perhaps it is tradition to decide to do more than you’re actually able to do. Maybe that’s me right now.

Physical Chemistry I: Thermodynamics
Undergraduate Course, Oregon State University, Department of Chemistry, 2020
I was an undergraduate TA for Thermodynamics under Wei Kong, selected because of my performance in the course the previous year, and my personal interest in the subject. Our text was “Physical Chemistry” by Silbey, Alberty, and Bawendi (2004). Because the course was remote, I illustrated concepts to students using an iPad, working through practice problems, and checking the work of students in the Zoom room. I worked closely with the teaching staff, synchronizing during weekly instructional meetings, and when grading course exams.
Physical Chemistry III: Statistical Mechanics
Undergraduate Course, Oregon State University, Department of Chemistry, 2021
I was an undergraduate TA for Thermodynamics under Wei Kong, selected because of my performance in the course the previous year, and my personal interest in the subject. Our text was “Physical Chemistry” by Silbey, Alberty, and Bawendi (2004).

Biochemistry I: Protein Structure and Function
Undergraduate Course, University of Washington, Department of Biochemistry, 2022
I was a graduate student TA for Biochemistry I under Profs. Justin Kollman and Susan Brockerhoff. Our text was the Lehninger “Principles of Biochemistry” by Nelson and Cox. I took notes during lecture, prepared explanatory slides each week, and held twice-weekly recitation sections for students. I worked closely with the teaching staff, synchronizing during weekly instructional meetings, and when grading course exams.
Biochemistry II: Intermediate Metabolism
Undergraduate Course, University of Washington, Department of Biochemistry, 2023
I was a graduate student TA for Biochemistry II under Profs. Dana Miller and Liangcai Gu. Our text was the Lehninger “Principles of Biochemistry” by Nelson and Cox. I took notes during lecture, prepared explanatory slides each week, and held twice-weekly recitation sections for students. I worked closely with the teaching staff, synchronizing during weekly instructional meetings, and when grading course exams.
Biochemistry Undergraduate Reading Program (BURP)
Undergraduate Extracurricular, University of Washington, Department of Biochemistry, 2023
BURP is a quarter-long extracurricular study program for undergraduates interested in exploring the scientific literature. Undergraduates are paired with a mentor, and the two read papers together over the quarter, culminating in an optional symposium around Finals week. Since its inception, BURP has served over 100 undergraduates and 50 mentors in the UW Biochem community. Read about BURP in UW Biochem’s January 2024 Newsletter.
