We are pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. David Rose, Adjunct Professor, to the Department of Medical Biophysics.
Originally from Buffalo, NY, Dr. Rose was educated at the University of Pennsylvania and Oxford University. After a postdoctoral appointment at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, he spent seven years at the National Research Council of Canada in Ottawa. David joined the Research Staff at the Ontario Cancer Institute in 1991. He worked previously with the Department of Medical Biophysics as an Associate Professor from 1991 to 1999 and as a Professor from 1999 to 2008. He was also recently appointed as an Emeritus Scientist at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre and a Professor Emeritus and Adjunct Professor at the University of Waterloo.
Dr. Rose has conducted research in structural glycobiology, with a particular interest in enzymes associated with human health and disease. His recent work focuses on enzymes that take part in processing major components of the human diet.
David returned to MBP, effective April 1/22. He does not have a lab at any of our sites, but he looks forward to participating in teaching and student advisory committees.
Please join us in welcoming Dr. Rose back to the Department!
