Gina Baglia

Regina Baglia received her BS degree in biochemistry in 2011 from Temple University in Philadelphia, where she did research with Michael Zdilla in synthetic inorganic chemistry. She went on to obtain her PhD in chemistry from Johns Hopkins University with David P. Goldberg in 2017. Her graduate work centered on the synthesis and reactivity of metal-oxo porphyrinoid complexes as model complexes for reactive intermediates in metalloenzymes. Following this, she spent a short time at the Smithsonian’s Museum Conservation Institute doing analytical work on historic objects. In 2019, she joined the Dodani lab, where she is studying the roles of anions in biological processes.
