My background is in biological physics; my Ph.D. is in physics from Princeton University under the tutelage of Sol Gruner. At Princeton I studied how the lipid composition of a membrane altered the activity of an ion channel in that membrane using voltage-clamping and x-ray scattering. I then became a post-doc with Joe Zasadzinski at the University of California at Santa Barbara where I looked at other membrane and surfactant systems with electron microscopy. (The photo above is ancient and comes from Joe's lab.) I did a second postdoc at Stanford with Harden McConnell and studied lipids in monolayers: how the miscibility critical point and the propensity for complex formation depend on lipid composition.
