BIO

Dr. Warshaw received his Ph.D. in Physiology and Biophysics at the University of Vermont, and continued his research studying the molecular mechanism of muscle contraction as a post-doctoral associate at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. He returned to the University of Vermont as an Assistant Professor of Molecular Physiology & Biophysics and now is University Distinguished Professor and Chair of the Department. Currently, Dr. Warshaw’s lab is using state-of-the-art single molecule detection and manipulation techniques to characterize the structure and function of molecular motors in normal and disease states of the cardiovascular system and in intracellular cargo transport.
