Susan J. Baserga is an American physician and the William H. Fleming Professor of Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry at Yale University. Her research considers the molecular basis of ribosomes, and the mechanistic basis of inherited human disease.
Early life and education
Baserga's father, Renato Baerga, was a pathologist and cancer researcher.[1] In 1977 Baserga became inspired by pre-RNA splicing. As an MD–PhD candidate, Baserga studied nonsense-mediated decay mammalian cells. She moved to Joan Steitz's laboratory at Yale University, where she started working on ribosome biogenesis.
Research and career
Baserga started her academic career at Yale in 1993. She was promoted to Professor in 2007. Her research looks to identify how ribosome production is regulated in mammalian cells. She uses Xenopus tropicalis as a model system for ribosomopathies, and is interested in Fanconi anemia repair factors.[1]
In 2020 she was named the William H. Fleming Professor of Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry.[2] She is the Chair of the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Women in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Committee.[3] In 2023 she joned the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine Committee on RNA modifications, Towards Sequencing and Mapping of RNA Modifications.[4]
