Description: | Michael Rossmann is the Hanley Distinguished Professor of Biological Sciences at Purdue University, where he has worked as a research scientist for the last 41 years. He is a member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, a foreign member of the British Royal Society, and a member of the National Science Board, the oversight body for the National Science Foundation. His laboratory utilizes X-ray crystallography and electron microscopy to study biological structure of various animal and bacterial viruses at atomic resolution to determine how these molecular assemblages recognize specific hosts, tissues, or cells, how they enter the cell and disassemble, and how newly synthesized viral components assemble and mature to form progeny viruses.
