Info
Professor at Stanford University (Departments of Molecular and Cellular Physiology, Neurology and Neurological Sciences, Structural Biology, and Photon Science) and Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator, based at the James H. Clark Center. At Yale University 1987-2000 in Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry, where he originally developed XPLOR and co-developed CNS (Crystallography and NMR System) with Paul Adams and collaborators. CNS is the software lineage that gave rise to both PHENIX (via Adams at LBNL) and XPLOR-NIH (via Charles Schwieters and Marius Clore at NIH).
