Nick Rhind
Senior Editor
Nick Rhind studied math and biology as an undergraduate at Brown University and found the biology a lot easier. He went on to do his graduate work at the University of California, Berkeley, studying worm sex-determination in the Meyer lab. However, studying one thousand cells at once was a bit too complicated. So, for his postdoctoral training, he moved to Paul Russell’s’ lab at the Scripps Research Institute to try to figure out how fission yeast know how big they are. There, he also became interested in how and why cells regulate the cell cycle in response to DNA damage. He has continued those lines of research in his own laboratory at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, focusing recently on cell size and more general questions about the regulation of DNA replication kinetics, work that has led back to his mathematical roots, with productive collaborations in both genomic analysis and analytic modeling.
