Michael Keith Rosen (* 1965 in Philadelphia , Pennsylvania ) is an American biophysicist at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center (UTSW) in Dallas .

Life

Rosen earned bachelor's degrees in chemistry and chemical engineering from the University of Michigan in 1987, postgraduate degrees from Alan R. Battersby at the University of Cambridge in 1988, and a Ph.D. in 1993 from Stuart L. Schreiber at Harvard University. , also each in chemistry. His dissertation was entitled The molecular basis of receptor-ligand-receptor interactions: studies of the immunophilin FKBP12 . As a postdoctoral fellow, he worked with Tony Pawson and Lewis E. Kay at the University of Toronto and the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto .

In 1996 Rosen got his own research laboratory at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York City and a first professorship (assistant professor) at Weill Cornell Medical College , in 2000 he became an associate professor . He has been at UTSW since 2001. Here he is (as of 2020) professor and chair (Chair) of Biochemistry. Rosen has also been doing research for the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) since 2000 .

According to Google Scholar, Rosen has an h-index of 66, and according to the Scopus database, an h-index of 58 (as of April 2020).

In 2020 Rosen received the Wiley Prize in Biomedical Sciences together with Cliff Brangwynne and Tony Hyman . The researchers were recognized for their discovery that cells can use phase transitions (biomolecular condensates) to compartmentalize without membranes . In 2020, Rosen was elected to the National Academy of Sciences .
