Kessin, PhD is Professor of Pathology and Cell Biology at Columbia University, where he was also Associate Dean for Ph.D programs at the Columbia University Medical Center. He received his PhD from Brandeis, and taught genetics at Harvard. For the past 30 years he has done research in cell biology and taught molecular biology, research ethics, and the history of science at Columbia
University. During 35 years of research supported by the National Institutes of Health, the Kessin Lab attracted talented students, technicians and postdoctoral fellows to conduct research in microbiology, cell development, and infection.
Scientists in the lab were also interested in the cultural and ethical dilemmas that emerge from science. He writes a column for The Lakeville Journal in Salisbury CT that demystifies science. These columns, called The Body Scientific, cover topics from vaccines to evolution to genetically modified crops. The columns will soon appear in a book form.
The Famine of Men describes an epidemic through the experience of young scientists. They discover and confront a virus like no other, with consequences that they had never imagined. This book is for all the graduate students, medical students, and young researchers who drive science and medicine.
Galene and Richard Kessin have returned to their New England roots and live in Norfolk, Connecticut.ver menos
