Biography

 

Steve Jacobsen did his PhD at the University of Minnesota and postdoctoral studies at the California Institute of Technology with Elliot Meyerowitz. He joined the department of Molecular Cell and Developmental Biology in 1998. He has recieved two young investigator awards for his research, from the Searle Scholars and Beckman Young Investigator Programs. He was named an HHMI Investigator since 2005, received Phillip C. Hamm Memorial Lecture Award in 2008, Charles A. Shull Award for outstanding investigations in the field of plant biology in 2009, and was elected to National Academy of Sciences and American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2011 and 2016 respectively.
