Frank Vollmer is currently a Junior Fellow at The Rowland Institute at Harvard. He received his M.S. in Biochemistry in 1998, and his Ph.D. in ‘Physics in Biology’ from The Rockefeller University, New York, in 2004. For his master thesis he worked in Dr. Robert Roeder's Laboratory of Biochemistry on the characterization of an eukaryotic transcription factor. His Ph.D. thesis was supervised by Dr. Albert Libchaber: the work in experimental physics concerned perturbations of high-Q optical microcavities with nanoparticles and biomolecules for detection and analysis. He received a scholarship from the Boehringer Ingelheim Fonds, Germany. [CV]
