Tania A. Baker is the Head of the Department and Whitehead Professor of Biology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and an Investigator of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. She received a B.S. in biochemistry from the University of Wisconsin, Madison, and a Ph.D. in biochemistry from Stanford University in 1988. Her graduate research was carried out in the laboratory of Professor Arthur Kornberg and focused on mechanisms of initiation of DNA replication. She did postdocto
- Balanced coverage of prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems is included.
- To support the concise narrative, additional material can be found in essay boxes that are labeled in four categories:
- Key or Classic Experiments highlight influential experimental strategies that show students how we know what we know.
- Techniques include recent methods from the fields of bioinformatics and genomics.
- Advanced Concepts provide further discussions of key theories and principles.
- Medical Connections highlight how understanding basic mechanisms sheds light on—and may lead to treatment of—medical conditions and human diseases.
