About the speaker: Professor Terry Hwa started his research career in statistical physics. He made seminal
contributions to the theory of nonequilibrium critical phenomena, phase transitions in disordered systems, and
vortices in high temperature superconductors. He changed his research direction to quantitative study of
biological systems at the molecular level more than ten years ago and is now running a microbiology lab
in addition to theoretical and modelling work at UC San Diego. He has won numerous prizes and awards for
his outstanding research work, including the APS Apker Prize in 1986, the OCPA Outstanding Young
Researcher Award in 1993, the Beckman Young Investigator Award in 1997, the Guggenheim Fellowship in
1999, and the Burroughs-Wellcome's Innovation Award in Functional Genomics in 2000. He has played a key
role in fostering dialogue and collaboration between biologists and theoreticians through organization of
research programs, workshops, and summer schools. For details of Prof. Hwa's research work please visit his
