Professor Philip Yeagle is Emeritus Professor at the University of Connecticut. He has previously held the positions of Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences and then Interim Chancellor at Rutgers University, Head of the Department of Molecular and Cell Biology at the University of Connecticut, professor at the University of Buffalo School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, and several visiting professorships at the University of Oxford and one at the CSIRO, Australia. He has published over 150 papers and book chapters and has written or edited eight books. In 2016 he was awarded the Avanti Award in Lipids by the Biophysical Society and was elected a Fellow of the AAAS. Much of his research focused on the structures and roles of lipids in cell membranes. His Current research efforts are addressing unsolved problems in membrane protein structure.
