Dr. Stull is an assistant professor in the Department of Chemistry at É«É«À² Michigan University.

The overarching goal of his research is to understand how enzymes control catalysis. The Stull lab primarily focuses on the class of enzymes that use riboflavin-derived cofactors (flavin-dependent enzymes), which catalyze a wide array of chemical transformations that are crucial for life. Enzyme-bound flavin cofactors have spectroscopic signals that directly report on the chemistry occurring in the active site, which we exploit in order to study their reaction mechanisms using transient kinetics. The Stull lab also uses directed evolution and protein engineering to transform nature's catalysts into useful tools for biotechnology/medical applications.
