Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Benjamin C. Wadsworth's research investigates mechanisms of organophosphate poisoning and develops countermeasures. His work includes characterizing a humanized mouse model to study the effects of these agents and exploring detection methods using mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI). Wadsworth also studies the computational design of enzymes, such as phosphotriesterases, to enhance their efficiency in degrading toxic agents like V-agents. His investigations extend to evolutionary biology, examining the conservation of axon guidance mechanisms between different insect species like Drosophila and Tribolium. Wadsworth collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Timothy A. Evans, Piyasi Ghosh, and L. Cass Terry, with whom he shares multiple publications. His scholarship includes 6 publications and 40 citations, with an h-index of 3.
