Dr. Marshall's research and teaching focus on biochemistry and chemical education, particularly through hands-on undergraduate research. She supervises the Biochemical Research Lab, affectionately known as "the peanut lab," where students explore biochemical properties of natural products, likely including peanut-derived compounds. Her work emphasizes experiential learning and scientific inquiry at the undergraduate level.
Although no recent publications are listed in the provided text, her involvement in supervising a dedicated research lab suggests ongoing scholarly activity in biochemistry and analytical methods, particularly applied to food or plant-based compounds. This aligns with regional agricultural interests and provides valuable research experience for students.
Scientific Awards:
Dr. Marshall mentors undergraduate researchers in the Biochemical Research Lab but no named advisees are listed. She does not appear to have secured publicized external grants in the provided information, but her leadership in the department and research program indicates significant administrative and academic contributions. Her transition from K-12 education to advanced chemistry research underscores a strong commitment to science education at all levels.
The Biochemical Research Lab ("the peanut lab") is a central part of her work, providing a platform for student-driven research in biochemical analysis, likely involving spectroscopy, chromatography, and enzyme assays related to natural products found in peanuts or other regional crops.
