I earned a B.S. in Physics (Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Spain), PhD in Biophysics (University of Keele, UK - worked at the Synchrotron Radiation Source with Joan Bordas using SAXS (small angle X-ray scattering and cryo-EM to study tubulin assembly). I did my postdoc in biophysics at LBNL (solved the structure of tubulin using electron crystallography working with Ken Downing). In 1998 I joined UC Berkeley's MCB Department as an Assistant Professor and have been here ever since. I have served as Head of the Biophysics graduate program at Berkeley, Head of the MCB Undergraduate...
I have never had a non-academic job in my adult career. I am a dedicated field scientist engaged in long-term, multidisciplinary research. Most of my research occurs in the Sierra Nevada, CA and White Mountains, NH. My first and only professor track job is at Berkeley. So I do know the ropes of the UC system.

My lab started at Mass General Hospital and Harvard Medical School in 1981. I moved from Boston to Baylor College of Medicine in 1997, and from Houston to Berkeley in 2020 to join Nutritional Sciences and Toxicology. I have been Chair of NST since July 2022. My research is focused on the family of hormone receptors called the nuclear receptors, which includes the steroid receptors and many other with more recently identified functions.

I am an evolutionary biologist broadly interested in the ecology, evolution, and genomics of adaptive radiation in fishes. My lab uses field experiments, natural history, population genomics, behavioral ecology, functional morphology, quantitative and functional genetics, and phylogenetic methods to dissect this process at the mesoevolutionary scale in rapid radiations of three or more species.

My primary interest is understanding how organisms respond developmentally to environmental signals, and how and why these responses evolve as populations have adapted or will adapt to changing environmental conditions. I run a small to medium sized lab primarily funded by NSF grants, and to gain integrative understanding of our chosen foci, our work embraces a wide range of techniques from detailed studies of molecular mechanisms to genomic studies of archaeological samples to large field experiments. I started at UCB in January 2016 after 3.5 years as junior faculty at UVA, and I...
