Professional and Community Activities

Witherow's recent academic works includes a pedagogical publication inÌýBiochemistry and Molecular Biology EducationÌýand the publication of a book entitledÌýMolecular Biology Techniques: A Classroom Laboratory ManualÌý(Fourth Edition). Both of the publications relate to classes taught Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê, which have been adopted at other universities around the world. Outside of research, Witherow spends time working with the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB) in the design, delivery and scoring of their annual certification exam, which is given to students graduating from ASBMB-accredited programs.
