Jeffrey A. Stevens. I did my graduate studies in the physics department. At Ohio State University. In the Zhong Group. Conformational dynamics, specifically of heme. Proteins, utilizing ultra-fast laser spectroscopy techniques. And protein engineering. I used resonance energy transfer. Pairs to locally probe distance changes using ultrafast pump-probe fluorescence upconversion and have worked on studies of ligand. For a more detail discussion of my research:. Research Portfolio ».

I have worked on programming projects in LabVIEW, Mathematica, python and R. An overview of some of the projects including some examples are given below. This repository is for a program that I wrote in Mathematica originally and have since rewritten it as a python script. This routine uses XYZ coordinates obtained from protien crystal structures and calculates the orientation factor between two dipoles. I did extensive programming in LabVIEW 8.5.1 for data aquistion and instrument control.

As a graduate student, my goal was to develop methods to study protein dynamics on the picosecond to nanosecond time scale. To achieve this goal, I did time-resolved spectroscopy measurements on two model systems of the heme proteins cytochrome c. And myoglobin. There are 2 things that were novel about our approach to these measurements:. Measure down to the timescale of 100s of femtoseconds. Using femtosecond laser pulses. Experimental Setup Details ». Jump to cytochrome c. We used femtosecond fluoresce...
