Research Description:
Anthony Fodor did his Ph.D. in Physiology and Biophysics at the University of Washington in the lab of Dr. Bill Zagotta. His dissertation research focused on the molecular mechanism of local anesthetic block of ion channels. He then worked as a software developer at a number of obscure Seattle dot-coms and then as a bioinformatics programmer at the biotech company Immunex. He returned to academics for a post-doc in the lab of Dr. Rick Aldrich at Stanford. His research interests include algorithm development in bioinformatics and the functional genomics of transporters and ion channels. |
