SUMMARY:Prof. Dianne Newman Gordon M.Binder/Amgen Professor of Biology and 
 Geobiology\, HHMI Investigator\, Caltech University [No Categories]
DESCRIPTION:Location:   \n Affiliation: \n Host:\n Dear all\,\n\nProf. Dian
 ne Newman from California Institute of Technology will visit the Technion 
 as a Lokey Distinguished Lecturer and will give a seminar on\n \nMonday\, 
 December 19th\, 2016 @ 13:00 PM\nSeminar at Faculty of Biology auditorium\
 n"The importance of growing slowly: roles for redox-active ‘antibiotics'
  in microbial survival and development”\n\nDr. Dianne Newman's research 
 focuses on microbial stress responses\, with an emphasis on mechanisms of 
 energy generation and survival when oxygen is scarce. The contexts that mo
 tivate her research span ancient sedimentary deposits to chronic infection
 s yet are linked by similar physiological questions.  Dr. Newman earned he
 r PhD in Environmental Engineering at MIT with Francois Morel\, a geochemi
 st\, and trained as a postdoc at Harvard Medical School with Roberto Kolte
 r\, a bacterial geneticist.  She joined the Caltech faculty in 2000 as the
  Clare Boothe Luce Assistant Professor of Geobiology and Environmental Sci
 ence. She was named a 2002 Packard Fellow and a Howard Hughes Medical Inst
 itute Investigator in 2005 and 2008. From 2007-2010 she was the Wilson Pro
 fessor of Biology and Geobiology at MIT. Her honors include the 2008 Eli L
 illy and Company-Elanco Research Award from the American Society of Microb
 iology\, and just this past year\, the National Academy of Science’s Awa
 rd in Molecular Biology for her "discovery of microbial mechanisms underly
 ing geologic processes" and a MacArthur Fellowship. Dr. Newman is the Gord
 on M. Binder/Amgen Professor of Biology and Geobiology at Caltech and a Fe
 llow of the American Academy of Microbiology.\n \nDr. Dianne Newman is an 
 absolutely inspiring speaker\, she bridge across disciplines from geo-sice
 nces to molecular biology and microbial physiology.  I most highly recomme
 nd meeting her and hearing her seminar. \n\nHost: Roy Kishony
