E. Peter Geiduschek.
Peter Geiduschek was an undergraduate Chemistry major at Columbia University and received his Physical Chemistry Ph.D. at Harvard in 1952 for research under the direction of Paul Doty. After short stints teaching chemistry at Yale and the University of Michigan, and an early two-year sabbatical asa US Army draftee, he came to the University of Chicago's Committee on Biophysics, where he was first introduced to enzymology and to phage. In 1970, he joined the Department of Biology of the then relatively new University of California campus at La Jolla, and has remained at UCSD since. His research contributions have primarily dealt with mechanisms of transcription and gene regulation, pursued in the specific microbial context of phage-infected bacteria, eukaryotes (budding yeast and RNA polymerase III) and archaea.
