Biography

Reed George directs the campus's shared resource laboratories, including the microscopy facilities, the instrument design facility, and the molecular biology laboratory. George says Janelia's cross-disciplinary approach to science's important questions brought him to Virginia from Berkeley, CA, where he was a senior program manager for the Berkeley Drosophila Genome Project, running the project's DNA-sequencing operations and its technology development group. He was also a founding partner of a biotechnology consulting business in northern California. George has a B.S. in mechanical engineering from the University of South Florida and a master of technology management from the University of Phoenix. Prior to transitioning into the life sciences in 1997, George was a principal staff engineer for Motorola.
