Christine Jacobs-Wagner is a microbial molecular biologist. She is the William H. Fleming, MD Professor of Molecular , Cellular, and Developmental Biology and of Microbial Pathogenesis, HHMI investigator, and Director of the Microbial Sciences Institute at Yale Medical School. Jacobs-Wagner's research has shown that bacterial cells have a great deal of substructure including analogs of microfilaments, and that proteins are directed by regulatory processes to locate to specific places within the bacterial cell. She was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 2015 and has received a number of scietific awards.

Early life and education

Christine Jacobs-Wagner received her BS degree in biochemistry from University of Liege.[1] She also received her MS in 1991 and the PhD in 1996 from University of Liege in Belgium in the field of Biochemsitry. She then went to Stanford Medical School on a fellowship from the European molecular Biology Oganization. From 2004 to 2013, she did research in Newcastle upon Tyne in the United Kingdom.[2] [1]

Academic career

Jacobs-Wagner came to Yale University in 2004. She currently holds an endowed chair in the Medical School and is the director of the Microbial Institute.

Research

Chistine Jacobs-Wagner's major breakthrough has been the discovery that the tiny cells of bacterial still have different areas of the cytoplasm that have distinctive protein components whose locations are controlled by regulatory systems. She also discovered intermediate filaments in bacteria, once thought to occur only in eukaryotic cells.

Awards & Recognition
