VLADIMIR N. UVERSKY is a Professor at the Department of Molecular Medicine, Morsani College of Medicine, University of South Florida (USF). He obtained his academic degrees from Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (Ph.D., in 1991) and from the Institute of Experimental and Theoretical Biophysics, Russian Academy of Sciences (D.Sc., in 1998). He spent his early career working mostly on protein folding at the Institute of Protein Research and the Institute for Biological Instrumentation (Russia). In 1998, he moved to the University of California Santa Cruz where for six years he was studying protein folding, misfolding, protein conformation diseases, and protein intrinsic disorder phenomenon. In 2004, he was invited to join the Indiana University School of Medicine as a Senior Research Professor to work on the intrinsically disordered proteins. Since 2010, Professor Uversky is with USF, where he continues to study intrinsically disordered proteins and protein folding and misfolding processes. He has authored over 1150 scientific publications and edited several books and book series on protein structure, function, folding and misfolding. He has been listed as Highly Cited Researchers(TM) every year from 2014 to 2020. In 2021, he was elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Biology and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry. Professor Uversky collaborated with more than 12,500 colleagues from more than 2,750 research organizations in 89 countries/territories. See less
