Marc M. Greenberg is a Professor of Chemistry and Director of the Chemistry Biology Interface Graduate Training Program at Johns Hopkins University. His research uses chemistry, biochemistry, and biology to fundamentally understand how DNA is oxidatively damaged, and what the effects of that damage are. Steven E. Rokita, Ph D, is Professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of Maryland. His research interests lie in sequence and conformation specific reactions of nucleic acids, enzyme-mediated activation of substrates and coenzymes, halogenation and dehalogenation reactions in biology, aromatic substitution and quinone methide generation in bioorganic chemistry, and copper- and nickel-mediated reactions in bioinorganic chemistry.
