Spencer earned his B. His graduate work, in the laboratory of Peter Schultz, focused on the biosynthetic incorporation of unnatural amino acids into proteins. He then worked for five years as a research scientist in the biotechnology industry, developingrecombinant hemoglobin as a treatment for acute blood loss.
In , Spencer decided to pursue his long-standing interest in teaching and moved to WWU, where he is today. Elich Award for Excellence in Teaching. Research in the Anthony—Cahill laboratory is directed at the protein engineering and structural biology of oxygen-binding proteins.
The primary focus is on circular permutation of human b-globin as a means of developing a single-chain hemoglobin with desirable therapeutic properties as a blood replacement. Outside the classroom and laboratory, Spencer is a great fan of the outdoors—especially the North Cascades and southeastern Utah, where he has often backpacked, camped, climbed, and mountain biked.
He also plays electric bass poorly in a local blues—rock band and teaches Aikido in Bellingham. Christopher K. He earned his B. He served on the faculties of Yale University and the University of Arizona from until , when he moved to Oregon State University as Chair of the Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics, a position he held until His major research interest is the enzymology and regulation of DNA precursor metabolism and the intracellular coordination between deoxyribonucleotide synthesis and DNA replication.
From to , Dr. Mathews has published about research papers, book chapters, and reviews dealing with molecular virology, metabolic regulation, nucleotide enzymology, and biochemical genetics. He was lead author of four editions of Biochemistry, a textbook for majors and graduate students.
His teaching experience includes undergraduate, graduate, and medical school biochemistry courses. He has backpacked and floated the mountains and rivers, respectively, of Oregon and the Northwest.

The text is fully integrated with MasteringChemistry to provide support for students before, during, and after class.
MasteringChemistry not included. MasteringChemistry should only be purchased when required by an instructor. Instructors, contact your Pearson representative for more information. Instructors ensure stu. Biochemistry Author : Spencer R. For one or two semester biochemistry courses science majors. A highly visual, precise and fresh approach to guide today's mixed-science majors to a deeper understanding of biochemistry Biochemistry: Concepts and Connections engages students in the rapidly evolving field of biochemistry, better preparing them for the challenges of 21stcentury science through quantitative reasoning skills and a rich, chemical perspective on biological processes.
This concise first edition teaches mixed-science-majors the chemical logic underlying the mechanisms, pathways, and processes in living cells through groundbreaking biochemical art and a clear narrative that illustrates biochemistry's relation to all other life sciences.
Integration of biochemistry's experimental underpinnings alongside the presentation of modern techniques encourages students to appreciate and consider how their understanding of biochemistry can and will contribute to solving problems in medicine, agricultural sciences, environmental sciences, and forensics.

Mathews, Oregon State University. Description For courses in biochemistry. This package includes Mastering Chemistry. Engage students in biochemistry visually and through real-world applications Biochemistry: Concepts and Connections engages students with a unique approach to visualization, synthesis of complex topics, and connections to the real world. By combining trusted author content with digital tools developed to engage students and emulate the office-hour experience, Mastering personalizes learning and often improves results for each student.
Students can further master concepts after class through traditional and adaptive homework assignments that provide hints and answer-specific feedback. The Mastering gradebook records scores for all automatically graded assignments in one place, while diagnostic tools give instructors access to rich data to assess student understanding and misconceptions. Preface Preface is available for download in PDF format. The figures walk students through two-page book spreads using stepwise animations to break them into tractable pieces.
Follow-up questions assess student understanding on the important concepts the figures portray. These self-paced tutorials in the Pearson eText and Mastering Chemistry coach students with hints and feedback specific to their individual misconceptions. New - Pearson eText, optimized for mobile, seamlessly integrates videos and other rich media with the text andgives students access to their textbook anytime, anywhere.
Pearson eText is available with Mastering Chemistry when packaged with new books, or as an upgrade students can purchase online. Additional tutorials in Mastering Chemistry will help students with some of the most basic concepts and operations.
See the table of Instructor and Student Resources on the following page. Producing a book of this magnitude involves the efforts of dedicated editorial and production teams. We have not had the pleasure of meeting all of these talented individuals, but we consider them close colleagues nonetheless. First, of course, is Jeanne Zalesky, our sponsoring editor, now Editor-in-Chief, Physical Sciences, who always found a way to keep us focused on our goal.
Susan Malloy, Program Manager, kept us organized and on schedule, juggling disparate elements in this complex project—later replaced by Anastasia Slesareva.
We also worked with an experienced development editor, Matt Walker. His suggested edits, insights, and attention to detail were invaluable.
Beth Sweeten, Senior Project Manager, coordinated the production of the main text and preparation of the Solutions Manual for the end-of-chapter problems. Gary Carlton provided great assistance with many of the illustrations.
Chris Hess provided the inspiration for our cover illustration, and Mo Spuhler helped us locate much excellent illustrative material. Once the book was in production, Mary Tindle skillfully kept us all on a complex schedule. The three of us give special thanks to friends and colleagues who provided unpublished material for us to use as illustrations. These contributors include John S.
