About the Authors
HARVEY LODISH is Professor of Biology and Professor of Biological Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a Founding Member of the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research. Dr. Lodish is also a member of the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and was President (2004) of the American Society for Cell Biology. He is well known for his work on cell-membrane physiology, particularly the biosynthesis of many cell-surface proteins, and on the cloning and functional analysis of several cell-surface receptor proteins, such as the erythropoietin and TGF- receptors. His laboratory also studies long noncoding RNAs and micro-RNAs that regulate the development and function of hematopoietic cells and adipocytes. Dr. Lodish teaches undergraduate and graduate courses in cell biology and biotechnology.
ARNOLD BERK holds the UCLA Presidential Chair in Molecular Cell Biology in the Department of Microbiology, Immunology, and Molecular Genetics and is a member of the Molecular Biology Institute at the University of California, Los Angeles. Dr. Berk is also a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He is one of the discoverers of RNA splicing and of mechanisms for gene control in viruses. His laboratory studies the molecular interactions that regulate transcription initiation in mammalian cells, focusing in particular on adenovirus regulatory proteins. He teaches an advanced undergraduate course in cell biology of the nucleus and a graduate course in the biochemistry of gene expression.
CHRIS A. KAISER is the Amgen Inc. Professor in the Department of Biology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He is also a former Department Head and former Provost at MIT. His laboratory uses genetic and cell biological methods to understand how newly synthesized membrane and secretory proteins are folded and stored in the compartments of the secretory pathway. Dr. Kaiser is recognized as a top educator at MIT, where he has taught genetics to undergraduate and graduate students for many years.
MONTY KRIEGER is the Whitehead Professor in the Department of Biology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a Senior Associate Member of the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. Dr. Krieger is also a member of the National Academy of Sciences. For his innovative teaching of undergraduate biology and human physiology as well as graduate cell biology courses, he has received numerous awards. His laboratory has made contributions to our understanding of membrane trafficking through the Golgi apparatus and has cloned and characterized receptor proteins important for pathogen recognition and the movement of cholesterol into and out of cells, including the HDL receptor.
ANTHONY BRETSCHER is Professor of Cell Biology at Cornell University and a member of the Weill Institute for Cell and Molecular Biology. His laboratory is well known for identifying and characterizing new components of the actin cytoskeleton and elucidating their biological functions in relation to cell polarity and membrane traffic. For this work, his laboratory exploits biochemical, genetic, and cell biological approaches in two model systems, vertebrate epithelial cells and the budding yeast. He is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. Dr. Bretscher teaches cell biology to undergraduates at Cornell University.
