Michael Maroney (M2M) Named AAAS Fellow

The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) recently awarded the distinction of Fellow to Michael J. Maroney, professor of chemistry, “for their efforts toward advancing science applications that are deemed scientifically or socially distinguished.”

Maroney, whose research uses biophysical, molecular biological and synthetic model approaches to investigate the structure of transition metal sites in proteins and enzymes, was recognized for “pioneering work in understanding nickel bioinorganic chemistry, with applications to bioenergy science, bacterial pathogenesis and transition metal homeostasis.”
