Barbara E. Ehrlich

Barbara E. Ehrlich is Professor of Pharmacology and of Cellular and Molecular Physiology at Yale University working on the biophysics of membrane ion channels. Recent research investigates the function of Polycystin-2, the inositol trisphosphate receptor, and the ryanodine receptor.[1][2][3]

Education

Ehrlich received her PhD from the University of California at Los Angeles in 1979 on the topic of Membrane transport parameters in manic-depressive illness.[4] This was followed by post-doctoral research at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and the Marine Biological Laboratory at Woods Hole.

Awards

She received the Margaret Oakley Dayhoff Award in Biophysics in 1997 and the K.S. Cole Award for Excellence in Membrane Biophysics from the Biophysical Society in 2005.
