Anna K. Mapp

September 6, 2017
Anna K. Mapp is the Edwin Vedejs Collegiate Professor of Chemistry and a Research Professor of the Life Sciences Institute at the University of Michigan. She is also the Associate Dean of Biological & Health Sciences at Rackham Graduate School, University of Michigan. She received an A.B. in Chemistry from Bryn Mawr College and the Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry from University of California-Berkeley. Following a postdoctoral fellowship at Caltech, she began her independent career at the University of Michigan.  Mapp’s research interests center around the conformationally dynamic protein complexes that are central to gene activation. More specifically, her group uses multidisciplinary strategies to define the molecular recognition framework of transcriptional coactivator-transcription factor complexes and to use the framework to target the complexes for therapeutic purposes. She notes her attendance at the Bioorganic Gordon Conference as a postdoc was instrumental in her career path, due to the creative scientific discussions and the commitment to mentoring junior scientist by the luminaries at the conference. She has further seen the outstanding impact the growth of the GRS has had on the career development of her own students and postdoctoral fellows.
