My principal research area is theoretical plasma physics applied to fusion energy. The central problem of magnetic fusion research is determining the rate of escape of thermal energy from a fully ...

For more than 20 years, John Walker has been engaged in studies of the mechanism of ATP synthases from bovine heart mitochondria and eubacteria. His work has led to the demonstration that these ...

Viola Vogel’s research in Bioengineering focuses on how to exploit emerging knowledge in Mechanobiology for Applications in Tissue Engineering, Regenerative Medicine or to treat inflammatory diseases.

My research concentrates on chemical processes occurring at the interface of solids and gases or liquids (electrolytes). Elementary steps of the reaction dynamics are investigated by the use of ...

N. Louise Glass is fungal biologist/mycologist recognized for her work on molecular mechanisms of fungal communication, programmed cell death and regulatory networks associated with fungal ...

Born in Germany; naturalized US citizen (2001). Diploma in Biology, University of Cologne (1986). PhD in Genetics, Tübingen (1988). Postdoctoral Fellow at the California Institute of Technology, ...

I am interested in the population genetics of plants, plant molecular evolution, statistical estimation of genetic parameters, plant phylogeny, plant genetic transmission and molecular genetics, and ...

Paul W. Sternberg is Bren Professor of Biology at the California Institute of Technology. He joined the Caltech faculty in 1987 after training at UCSF and receiving his PhD from MIT and his BA from ...

My primary research is in partial differential equations (PDE). Many of the problems I deal with are called free boundary problems: One wants to solve a PDE in a domain, subject to boundary condition, ...

Dr. Rosenberg is Chief of Surgery at the National Cancer Institute in Bethesda, Maryland and a Professor of Surgery at the Uniformed Services University of Health Sciences and at the George Washington ...

Xuemei Chen is the Furuta Chair Professor in the Department of Botany and Plant Sciences and Institute of Integrative Genome Biology at University of California, Riverside. She is a plant molecular ...

Our group's research focuses on protein design as an approach to understanding macromolecule structure and function. Our primary research interest is in the de novo design, in which one designs ...
