- Schramm was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 2007.
- His laboratory's research focuses on the elucidation of enzymatic mechanisms and transition state structure.This information is then used for the logical design of transition-state inhibitors which have the potential to be new biologically active agents.
- Some of these are in development to be drugs.
- Schramm's work has translated basic chemical understanding at the quantum mechanical level to a new approach to drug development.
