Stanley Fields is an American biologist best known for developing the yeast two hybrid method for identifying protein–protein interactions. [1] He is currently a professor of Genome Sciences at the University of Washington and Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator, [2] [3] and previously served as chair of the Department of Genome Sciences. [4]
Education
Fields was educated at the University of Cambridge where he was awarded a Doctor of Philosophy in 1981 for research carried out in the Laboratory of Molecular Biology with Greg Winter and George Brownlee. [5] [6]
Research
Fields developed the yeast two-hybrid system in 1989, [1] which has been widely used by Fields [7] [8] [9] [10] and others to identify protein-protein interactions in various organisms and biological contexts.
Along with Matt Kaeberlein and Brian Kennedy, in later work Fields has carried out genome-wide screens for aging genes in yeast. Kaeberlein and co-workers have questioned the hypothesis that lifespan extension from caloric restriction is mediated by Sirtuins. [11] Instead Kaeberlein, Fields, and Kennedy have proposed that caloric restriction increases lifespan by decreasing the activity of the Target of Rapamycin (TOR) kinase. [12]
Honors and awards
- 2003 Jacob Heskel Gabbay Award in Biotechnology and Medicine (jointly with Roger Brent) [13]
