Lihua Jin

Dr. Lihua Jin is a distinguished chemist with a strong background in protein biochemistry. After earning her Ph.D. from Princeton University, she applied her expertise in studying protein interactions at both the State University of New York College at Geneseo and, currently, at DePaul University. Her research focuses on using isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) to analyze various molecular interactions, including those involving proteins, DNA, and metal ions. Beyond her primary research, Dr. Jin is dedicated to improving student learning, evidenced by her collaboration with you to develop a two-tier diagnostic instrument to measure students' conceptual understanding in biochemistry.
