Research Description:
The Turro group is interested in understanding reactions of metal complexes that can be initiated with light, both as potential antitumor agents and for the fundamental understanding of reaction mechanisms and excited states. In addition, the reactivity of various complexes with DNA and their cytotoxicity is also being investigated.
