Profile/About Me
Welcome to Clemson University! My name is Chandler Goldman and I am a Lecturer of Biology her at Clemson. I currently teach General Biology 1 (BIOL1030) as well as Cell Biology (BIOL4610). Outside of my passion for all things biology, I love running, camping, hiking with my family and dogs, and kayaking.
Research Interests
1. The role of mRNA transport in cell polarity establishment, particularly in developing embryonic cells
2. Post-translational histone modifications and their impact on gene expression within the pathogenic fungus, Aspergillus fumigatus
Courses Taught
BIOL 1030 (General Biology 1)
BIOL 4610 (Cell Biology)
