Introduction

Drosophilia melanogaster captured in Brazil

Anthony Mahowald, Ph.D., is a molecular genetics and cellular biologist who climaxed in his academic career at the University of Chicago, where he served as the department chair of the molecular genetics and cellular biology department [1].  His lab focused on the Drosophila melanogaster, which is often referred to as fruit fly, specifically focusing on controlling the genetic aspect of major developmental events [1]. His major research breakthroughs included the study of the stem cell niche, endocycles, and various types of actin.

Personal Life

Anthony Mahowald has three children, Maureen, Lisa, and Mike.[2] His wife is named Mary, and she is a professor of medical ethics. Maureen has a masters in molecular biology, Lisa is going to law school after getting her undergraduate degree in atmospheric physics, and Mike is a biology major. [2]

Educational Career

Anthony Mahowald was born in Albany, Minnesota, on November 24th, 1932 [3]. Mahowald received a bachelor's degree from Spring Hill College, which is a Catholic college in Mobile, Alabama [3].
