Abstract
Michael P. Sheetz made immense contributions to our understanding of motor proteins, membrane biology, cytoskeleton and mechanobiology over his ~50-year career. He started his independent career at the University of Connecticut, after which he moved to Washington University in St. Louis and then to Duke University, where he led the Department of Cell Biology for 10 years. He then moved to Columbia University, where he established a research group focused on mechanobiology, and then founded and led the Mechanobiology Institute at the National University of Singapore for 10 years. He ended his career at the University of Texas Health Center in Galveston, TX, USA. He trained a generation of leading interdisciplinary cell and mechanobiologists whose independent contributions continue to enhance his legacy.
Michael P. Sheetz在他近50年的职业生涯中对我们对运动蛋白、膜生物学、细胞骨架和机械生物学的理解做出了巨大的贡献。他在康涅狄格大学开始了他的独立职业生涯，之后他转到圣路易斯的华盛顿大学，然后转到杜克大学，在那里他领导了10年的细胞生物系。随后，他来到哥伦比亚大学，在那里他建立了一个专注于机械生物学的研究小组，然后在新加坡国立大学创立并领导了机械生物学研究所10年。他在美国德克萨斯州加尔维斯顿的德克萨斯大学健康中心结束了他的职业生涯。他培养了一代领先的跨学科细胞和机械生物学家，他们的独立贡献继续增强了他的遗产。
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Cell Biology (JCB) is a comprehensive journal dedicated to publishing original discoveries across all realms of cell biology. We invite papers presenting novel cellular or molecular advancements in various domains of basic cell biology, along with applied cell biology research in diverse systems such as immunology, neurobiology, metabolism, virology, developmental biology, and plant biology. We enthusiastically welcome submissions showcasing significant findings of interest to cell biologists, irrespective of the experimental approach.
