Justin Hines
Justin K. Hines is Professor of Chemistry at Lafayette College, where he teaches general chemistry and biochemistry courses and conducts education and NIH-funded laboratory research on protein misfolding with undergraduates. He received both his B.S. and PhD in Biochemistry from Iowa State University, where he studied the structure and regulation of the enzymes of central metabolism with Richard B. Honzatko and Herbert J. Fromm. He then completed a postdoctoral fellowship with Elizabeth A. Craig in Biochemistry at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. Professor Hines has won numerous awards for teaching and research, including being named a Cottrell Scholar by the Research Corporation for Science Advancement and a Henry-Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar by the Camille and Henry Dreyfus Foundation. He is also the author of the case-studies series for Macmillan’s three biochemistry textbooks. He enjoys running, hiking, games of any kind, and spending time with his wife and children.

Catherine Reinke
Catherine Reinke is an Associate Professor of Biology at Linfield University, where she teaches principles of biology, genetics, molecular cell biology, and animal development courses and conducts research with undergraduates. Her research interests include deciphering molecular mechanisms of gene regulation. She earned her BA in Biology and English from Carleton College, where she studied the regulation of inflorescence development with Susan Singer, and her PhD in Molecular Genetics and Cell Biology from the University of Chicago, where she studied mechanisms of endoplasmic reticulum inheritance and Golgi biogenesis with Benjamin Glick. After her introduction to teaching at Carleton College, she completed a postdoctoral fellowship with Richard Carthew in the Department of Molecular Biosciences at Northwestern University, where she studied molecular mechanisms of microRNA-mediated gene silencing. She is a recipient of the Laurence McKinley Gould Prize in Natural Science from Carleton College. She is also an active collaborator and principal investigator in the Genomics Education Partnership. She enjoys time spent with old friends and exploring new and cherished destinations with her husband John and children, Isaac and Ezra.

John L. Tymoczko
John L. Tymoczko was Towsley Professor of Biology Emeritus at Carleton College, where he taught from 1976 until his death in 2019. He taught a variety of courses, including Biochemistry, Biochemistry Laboratory, Oncogenes and the Molecular Biology of Cancer, and Exercise Biochemistry, and cotaught an introductory course, Energy Flow in Biological Systems. Professor Tymoczko received his B.A. from the University of Chicago in 1970 and his PhD in Biochemistry from the University of Chicago with Shutsung Liao at the Ben May Institute for Cancer Research. He then had a postdoctoral position with Hewson Swift of the Department of Biology at the University of Chicago. The focus of his research was on steroid receptors, ribonucleoprotein particles, and proteolytic processing enzymes.
