Dr. Meller completed his BSc at Tel Aviv University, and his MSc and Ph.D. in Physics at the Weizmann Institute for Science. He then moved to Harvard University where he spent two years as a postdoctoral fellow and five years as a Senior Rowland Fellow leading the Single Molecule Biophysics Group at the Rowland Institute at Harvard. Now at Boston University, Dr. Meller's research group (www.bu.edu/meller) is focused on the development and manipulations of novel materials at the nano-scale. These materials are engineered to enable the study of biomolecular structure and dynamics at the single molecule or single complex level.
