Tom Hagan
Associate Professor of Chemistry
& Biochemistry
Education:
B. S., Chemistry, Villanova, 1985
Ph. D., Inorganic Chemistry (Bioinorganic), University of Delaware, 1992
Post Doc, Biochemistry (Neurobiochemistry),
Penn State University, M. S. Hershey Medical Center, 1992
Positions:
Elizabethtown College (sabbatical replacement,
biochemistry), Spring 1992
Lebanon Valley College (sabbatical replacement, inorganic chemistry),
1992-93
Elizabethtown College (Biochemistry), 1993-present
Teaching Responsibilities:
I have three main areas of teaching responsibility:
biochemistry lecture and lab for chemistry, biochemistry and biology
majors; the Core (general education courses) where I teach
biochemistry for non-science majors; and the Hershey Foods' Honors Program
where I've taught a freshman seminar and the interdisciplinary course,
Chemistry and Politics of AIDS and Cancer.
Research Interests:
Currently, I am involved in two research projects, one
laboratory-based and the other dealing with educational trends. In
lab, we are investigating the targeting and entry of photodynamic
molecules into the cell as a means of anti-tumor therapy. On the
educational front, I am investigating trends in teaching biochemistry to
non-biochemistry majors, especially non-scientists. Additional
details for these projects (and others) are found on my "Professional" web
page.
