    Stanford Biochemistry Researcher in protein environments, Jacob Kirsh. Jacob Kirsh is a biophysical chemistry PhD candidate at Stanford University. He is broadly interested in how the color of a molecule can change depending on the environment it is in and what factors, like local electric fields, are most responsible for the changes we observe. In particular, his research focuses on creating new proteins whose color are determined by explicitly taking advantage of the relationship between local electric fields and absorption. By designing protein environments around a given chromophore to better understand this relationship, we hope to better understand the ways that local electric fields can be used to improve or create new function in existing proteins. He uses a host of biological and physical tools to make and study his samples and thereby gain a better understanding of protein production under molecular biology and the physical observables that proteins can exhibit. By working with model biological systems, his research hopes to better understand the physical forces that influence the function of molecules of all varieties in a host of environments. He holds a BA in chemistry and math from Swarthmore College and is entering the fourth year in his graduate program.
