Biography

Chu graduated from Garden City High School in New York in 1963. He received a B.A. in physics from Princeton University in 1967, a Ph.D. in physics from M.I.T. in 1973,[1] and an M.D. from Harvard Medical School in 1980.

Chu joined the Stanford faculty in 1987. His research has investigated how cells react to DNA damage from radiation. He has also developed electroporation techniques, a method for pulsed-field gel electrophoresis,[2] and methods for analyzing microarray data.[3]

Awards

Chu received the Clinical Scientist Award for Translational Research from Burroughs-Wellcome Fund (Wellcome Trust), and the Rita Allen Award from the Rita Allen Foundation.[4] Chu was also elected as a Fellow of the American Physical Society for contributions at the intersection of physics and life sciences, including PET, electrophoresis, and statistical methods for microarrays. His other notable contributions include discovering and characterizing proteins involved in DNA repair and developing instrumentation for assessing toxicity associated with cancer chemotherapy.[5]

Personal life

He married Sharon Rugel Long on August 9, 2008. Chu has two children, Alex and Jason.

His younger brother Steven Chu is a Nobel laureate and the twelfth United States secretary of energy in the Obama administration.[6] His other younger brother is the intellectual property attorney Morgan Chu.[7]
