Autorenporträt

James E. Ferrell, Jr., MD, PhD is Professor of Chemical and Systems Biology and Professor of Biochemistry at Stanford. His work, which makes use of quantitative experimental approaches, modeling and theory, looks to understand the design principles of biochemical switches, timers, and oscillators, especially those that control the cell cycle.
