Christopher Thomas Walsh

I held faculty positions at MIT (Chemistry & Biology Depts, 1972-1987) and Harvard Medical School (Biological Chemistry & Molecular Pharmacology Dept, 1987-2014) and am emeritus at HMS. I now spend 8 months a year at Stanford as a consulting professor to the Chemistry Dept and the new Chemistry, Engineering and Medicine for Human Health Center at Stanford. I continue to have scientific advisory and director roles at biotechnology companies and venture funds and at nonprofit institutions (Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research, California Institute for Biomedical Research). I have just co-authored a book Antibiotics: Challenges, Mechanisms, Opportunities from ASM Press, 2016.
