Speakers Bios

Michael Snyder, Ph.D.

Michael Snyder is the Lewis B. Cullman Professor of Molecular and Cellular Biology and Professor of Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry at Yale University; he is also the Director of the Yale Center of Genomics and Proteomics. Dr. Snyder received his Ph.D. training in the laboratory of Dr. Norman Davidson at the California Institute of Technology and carried out postdoctoral training in Dr. Ronald Davis’s laboratory at Stanford University. He is a leader in the field of functional genomics and proteomics. His laboratory study was the first to carry out a large-scale functional genomics project in any organism, and currently carries out a variety of projects in the areas of genomics and proteomics both in yeast and humans. These include the global mapping of the binding sites of chromosomal proteins, and the large-scale analysis of proteins using protein microarrays. His laboratory built the first proteome chip for any organism and the first high resolution tiling array for the entire human genome. Dr. Snyder has published over 160 manuscripts and is editor of a number of journals including Functional and Integrative Genomics, Molecular and Cellular Proteomics, Targets, PloS Genetics and Genes and Development. He sits on many international advisory boards and was a cofounder of Protometrix, Inc., a protein microarray company that was recently purchased by Invitrogen.
