Education

B.S., Biology, Pennsylvania State University, 1980

M.S., Biology, University of Michigan, 1988

Ph.D., Biology, University of Michigan, 1992

NIH Postdoctoral Fellow, University of Minnesota,

1992-1996

Current Position

Chief Executive Officer of Genome Project Solutions

Adjunct (Full) Professor, University of California, Berkeley

Guest researcher, DOE Joint Genome Institute (JGI) and Lawrence Berkeley National

Laboratory

Scientific Career Highlights

As Head of Comparative Genomics, led the transition

of the JGI from a human genome sequencing center to a comparative genomics

institute

Led the development of the $20 million/year

JGI Community Sequencing Program providing genomic data to the scientific

community through peer review

Have overseen numerous whole genome sequencing

projects

Have overseen activities of $60 million/year as a member of JGI Senior Management

Committee

Led 22 programs funded through competitive grant applications totaling over

$12 million

Have supervised 31 long-term researchers and

30 guest researchers

Led the development of the PHRINGE ( Phylogenetic

Resources for Interpreting Genomes ) database, an advanced analysis tool for

interpreting patterns of genome evolution and for inferring gene function

Developed databases and tools for analyzing

and annotating organelle genomes

Made significant contributions to understanding

the genome duplications at the base of the vertebrates, the evolutionary transfer

of genes among intracellular compartments, modes of genome rearrangement,

recognizing regulatory elements in DNA sequences, using genome-level characters

for reconstructing evolutionary relationships, understanding the effects of

various genome processes on DNA sequence evolution, and reconstructing the

evolutionary relationships at the deepest levels among major groups of animals,

plants, and protists
