Welcome to the Crumbliss Group!

Crumbliss Group Spring 2007

Welcome to the Home of the Crumbliss Lab at Duke University! We are a research laboratory devoted to studying iron metabolism in a variety of biological systems from the perspective of small molecules and proteins! Our passion for this central metal makes us the REAL Iron Dukes! Take a look around and find our recent publications, information on our present group members, and a summary of our most important work!
