As one of the five Executive Editors of Biophysical Reviews I have been asked to provide this short biographical sketch for the readers of the journal. I have been a member of the Editorial Board since the inception of the journal in 2008 and an Executive Editor since 2014. I hold a B.S. degree in Chemistry from the University of Delaware and a Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry from Stanford University. Except for a year as a Damon Runyon Postdoctoral Fellow at Columbia University, I have spent my entire professional career at Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, where I am currently the Mary I. Bunting Professor of Chemistry and Chemical Biology. I served for many years as Founding Director of the Rutgers University Center for Molecular Biophysics and Biophysical Chemistry, and have trained undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral students from a variety of academic disciplines.
