Michael Levin BS, PhD

Michael Levin attended Tufts University, where he received dual B.S. degrees, in CS and in Biology. He earned a Ph.D. from Harvard University for the first characterization of the molecular-genetic mechanisms that allow embryos to form consistently left-right asymmetric body structures in a universe that does not macroscopically distinguish left from right (1992-1996); this work is on Nature's list of '100 Milestones of Developmental Biology of the Century'.
