Dr. Theimer is a professor in the Arts and Sciences Department and also serves as the Chair of the Arts and Sciences Department and Program Director of the Health and Occupational Sciences program.
Her academic experience is in biochemistry and biophysics, with a past research history on the structure and function relationships in RNA molecules and their impact on health and disease. She teaches chemistry, math, biology, and physics, and has more recently received a degree in Public Health, to teach in those areas as well.
Dr. Theimer is passionate about lifelong learning and finding the next new opportunity for growth for herself and her students, but also tries to take time to stop and smell the roses (or rather the wild orange poppies that bloom in front of her house every Spring).
