Transcription
Administration, advising, and consulting
Engelman has served as Director of Biological Sciences at Yale, an advisor to the Brookhaven National Laboratory, and a consultant to the Los Alamos National Laboratory.[9] He also served as Acting Dean of Yale College in 1991.[10]
Education
Engelman is a graduate (and trustee[11]) of Reed College receiving his degree in physics. He then earned his Ph.D. in molecular biophysics at Yale University in 1969.[12][13]
Engelman Lab
Engelman directs the Engelman Laboratory at Yale focused on the biophysics of biological membranes. His group is best known for elucidating the mechanism of pH Low Insertion Peptide (pHLIP) to form trans-membrane helices.[13][14]
Patents
Engelman holds six United States patents for his discoveries.[15]
