Exploring Science, Solving Problems, Advancing Discovery
I am Maryam Adeyemo, a structural biologist and Ph.D. researcher in Chemistry at Purdue University. I use structural, biochemical, and biophysical approaches to understand how proteins function and interact—and how molecular insights can be translated into meaningful scientific discoveries.
Outside the lab, I enjoy writing poetry, exploring new ideas, connecting with people, and contributing to initiatives that support students and my community.
Scientist, Problem-Solver, and Lifelong Learner
My journey, from biochemical and computational research in Nigeria to structural biology and biophysics in the United States, has been guided by a desire to understand complex biological questions and translate molecular insights into meaningful discoveries.
Beyond the laboratory, I enjoy writing poetry, riding bicycle, mentoring others, exploring new ideas, and contributing to initiatives that support students and my community.
