Savage Lab

The Savage Lab aims to comprehend how protein machinery enables the biochemistry of the cell. We have a specific focus on the intricate process of photosynthetic CO2 fixation, which requires precise timing and location to capture and transform light into stored chemical energy. Photosynthesis holds exceptional significance for human society as it drives the conversion of inorganic carbon into organic compounds, serving as the primary source of almost all nutritional calories on the planet.
