Paul de Figueiredo
Paul de Figueiredo is a professor in the Department of Molecular Microbiology and Immunology in the School of Medicine as well as in the Department of Pathobiology and Integrative Biomedical Science in the College of Veterinary Medicine. He is also a principal investigator at the Christopher S. Bond Life Sciences Center. Paul holds degrees from Rice University (BA, Mathematics and Political Science), Stanford (MA, Religious Studies), and Cornell (PhD, Biochemistry, Molecular, and Cell Biology), and completed postdoctoral training at MIT and the University of Washington. He has broad experience and training in molecular biology, cell biology, microbiology, and biochemistry, with…
Wendy Picking
Wendy Picking is developing prophylactic and therapeutic vaccines to bacterial pathogens that cause enterica and respiratory infections. These vaccines are based on protein antigens and are formulated into a multimeric presentation to begin to mimic the appearance of the bacterial pathogen to the host immune system. Picking was born in Lincoln, KS in north central Kansas. After growing up on the farm, she attended the University of Kansas where she received a BA in biochemistry and PhD in molecular genetics. She completed post-doctoral training at University of Texas in Austin and Washington University in St. Louis studying molecular biology and…

Wes Warren
Wesley Warren is a professor of comparative genomics in Department of Animal Sciences, Department of Surgery, Institute for Data Science and Informatics. Dr. Warren is a recognized leader in the field of comparative genomics with a theme of looking at biology with a molecular lens. His scientific journey started with basic animal physiology and has progressed to single cell transcriptome analysis of a broad spectrum of species. Dr. Warren’s research involves the use of whole genome comparative methods to examine genetic adaptation events within existing or newly discovered model organisms as a means to better understand human…
Scott C. Peck
Scott C. Peck’s research investigates how cells recognize and respond to changes in the environment. The primary foci of his lab are how plants and bacterial pathogens recognize each other, and how plant defense responses and plant nutrition interact with each other to yield a proper biological outcome. In addition, the Peck lab has developed a portfolio of proteomics strategies, primarily related to analyzing changes in plasma membrane protein composition.
Gary A. Weisman
Gary A. Weisman is a Curators’ Distinguished Professor of Biochemistry. He received his B.S. degree in 1973 from the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn, NY and his PhD degree in 1982 from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. He did his postdoctoral work at Cornell University and then accepted an Assistant Professor position (tenure track) at the University of Missouri-Columbia in 1985. He was promoted to Associate Professor in 1992 and then Professor in 1998. He was appointed Curators’ Distinguished Professor of Biochemistry in 2015.
