James Hurley is the Kirsch Springer Chair in Biological Sciences and Distinguished Professor of Molecular and Cell Biology at University of California, Berkeley. He explores the interactions between proteins and membranes that determine cell and organelle shape and the evolution of shape over time, using tools ranging from cryo-electron microscopy and tomography to biochemical reconstitution. Hurley has a strong interest in how membrane remodeling and organelle homeostasis go wrong in disease.
