About
Section heading
Bio paragraph 1
Jonathan Weissman trained as a physicist, earning his PhD in Peter Kim's lab at MIT before a postdoc with Art Horwich at Yale, where he worked out the mechanism of the GroEL chaperonin. He started his lab at UCSF in 1996, became an HHMI Investigator in 2000, and was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 2009. In 2020 he moved the lab to MIT and the Whitehead Institute, where he holds the Landon T. Clay Professorship in Biology.
Bio paragraph 2
Over three decades, the lab has moved from protein folding and yeast prions to building some of the most widely used tools in modern genomics — ribosome profiling, NET-seq, CRISPRi/CRISPRa, and Perturb-seq — while training generations of scientists who now lead their own labs and companies around the world.
