Summary
Dr Rohan Baker obtained his PhD from the John Curtin School of Medical Research at the Australian National University (ANU) in 1988. From 1988 to 1991, as a postdoctoral fellow at the Department of Biology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, he studied how cells choose proteins for degradation and attach ubiquitin to them. He returned as a research fellow to the John Curtin School in 1991, to be a part of the Molecular Genetics Group. As head of the Ubiquitin Laboratory, this centre researched what part ubiquitin plays in destroying other proteins (proteolysis) in the cell and how cells are affected by defects in the ubiquitin system.
