Congratulations to Dr. Adam Caparco for successfully defending his PhD thesis entitled “Chiral Amine Production with Cofactor Regeneration in Protein-Inorganic Self-Assembled Supraparticles” on May 7th, 2020. In our lab’s second ever virtual defense, Adam presented from his home in Atlanta as friends and family joined in from across the country!

We will truly miss Adam when he leaves, as he is our primary cloning and biocatalysis expert, a prolific birthday cake and bread baker, and the barista-in-chief of Champion lab coffee breaks. We wish Adam the best going forward and can’t wait to follow his academic career. Congratulations!
