Biography:
Dr. Bruce Paterson received his Ph.D. in zoology in 1971 from the University of California-Berkeley with Dr. R. Strohman, studying muscle-specific gene expression during myogenesis in vitro. He continued this work at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel, with Dr. D. Yaffe, from 1971 to 1974, followed by an additional year with Dr. J. Bishop at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, studying mRNA complexity changes during myogenesis. He has been with the Laboratory of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (formerly Laboratory of Biochemistry) since 1975.
Subjects of specialization: cell-free protein synthesis, myogenesis, Drosophila development, RNAi gene knock-down, micro RNA circuitry
