Professor DuBois received her B.S. in Biochemistry in 1995 from Cornell University, and her Ph.D. in Chemistry in 2000 from Stanford University. She then spent the following four years as a National Institutes of Health post-doctoral researcher at the University of California, Berkeley. Professor DuBois joined the faculty at the University of Notre Dame as an assistant professor in the summer of 2004.
