Biography
Dr. Smith received his Bachelor of Science in Chemistry from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2003. He then received his PhD in Chemistry from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2008, where his research focused on the chemical mechanisms of sirtuin protein lysine deacetylases. During his graduate career he spent a brief period at Genentech in the Department of Medicinal Chemistry where he synthesized drugs that target the Inhibitor of Apoptosis family of proteins. From 2009-2014, Dr. Smith performed postdoctoral studies on nitric oxide synthases and cysteine S-nitrosation at the University of California, Berkeley and the Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla. During his postdoctoral studies Dr. Smith was awarded an NIH Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award. Dr. Smith joined the faculty at the Medical College of Wisconsin in 2014.
