Martin Lawrence, professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, has won this year's Charles and Nora L. Wiley Faculty Awards for Meritorious Research and Creativity.
Lawrence is a pioneer in archaeal virus proteins, a craftsman in the art of crystallography and a prolific contributor to scientific publications. He has distinguished himself over the past decade with his work in X-ray crystallography of biological macromolecules, especially virus proteins and proteins related to iron homeostasis. While his recent work on Steap proteins represents a major advance in the field of metalloreductases and human iron homeostasis, his greatest achievement to date is said to be his work on archaeal viruses from extreme environments.
