Michael M. Cox is Assistant Chair, Department of
Biochemistry at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He received
his B.A. in Biology from the University of Delaware and his Ph.D.
in Biochemistry from Brandeis University. Cox's current research
activity involves studies of the mechanism of action of proteins
involved in genetic recombination. This work is focused on the
bacterial RecA protein, the bacterial RecF, RecO, RecR, RecG, RuvA,
and RuvB proteins, the yeast Rad 51 protein, and more broadly on
the mechanism of the recombinational DNA repair of stalled
replication forks.
Jennifer A. Doudna grew up on the Big Island of Hawaii,
where she became interested in chemistry and biochemistry during
her high school years. She is currently Professor of Molecular and
Cell Biology and Professor of Chemistry at the University of
California, Berkeley and an Investigator of the Howard Hughes
Medical Institute. She received her B.A. in biochemistry from
Pomona College and her Ph.D. from Harvard University, working in
the laboratory of Jack Szostak, with whom she also did postdoctoral
research.
Michael O'Donnell received his Ph.D. at the University of
Michigan, where he worked under Charles Williams Jr. on electron
transfer in the flavoprotein thioredoxin reductase. He performed
postdoctoral work on E. coli replication with Arthur Kornberg and
then on herpes simplex virus replication with I. Robert Lehman,
both in the biochemistry department at Stanford University.
O'Donnell then became a member of the faculty of Weill Cornell
Medical College in 1986 and an investigator at the Howard Hughes
Medical Institute in 1992 before moving to The Rockefeller
University in 1996. O'Donnell is a member of the National Academy
of Sciences."
