About
James McCormick is a scholar of Bioinformatics and Biophysics. His research focuses on protein engineering, computational drug discovery, and understanding the process of allostery: the long range communication across a protein.
As a lecturer in the Program in Computing for the Arts and Sciences at the University of Michigan, he teaches courses on computing for digital media and programming for the sciences. James has two dogs: Finnegan and Jake.
