Half-time seminars Half-time seminar: Madeleine Barrett

My project focuses on developing novel and selective small molecule inhibitors of two antioxidant enzymes, glutathione peroxidase 1 and 4. I will discuss our high-throughput screening strategy, assay development, and the use of such inhibitors to deepen understanding of redox mechanisms in cancer cells. The seminar will present my progress to date and outline plans for the remainder of my doctoral education.
