Dr. Hoch received his Masters and PhD degrees in Physical Chemistry from Harvard University. His laboratory works on problems related to the physical basis for the biological activity of proteins. Broadly, this includes their structure, dynamics, stability, and interactions with other molecules. He is a leader in NMR data processing and analysis for biomolecular applications: he chaired a 1990 NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Computational Aspects of Biomolecular NMR, chaired the inaugural Gordon Research Conference on the same topic in 1999, co-authored the book “NMR Data Processing” with Dr. Alan Stern (1996), and currently directs two international online NMR resources: the National Center for Biomolecular NMR Data Processing and Analysis (nmrbox.org) and the Biological Magnetic Resonance Data Bank (bmrb.io).
He and his group have extensive experience in operating UConn Health’s Gregory P. Mullen NMR Structural Biology Facility (which Dr. Hoch directs) that includes spectrometers operating at 400, 500, 600, and 800 MHz. The latter three instruments are equipped with state-of-the-art cryogenically cooled probes. Computational resources include a power 1000-node cluster.
