Michael Worobey, PhD

    Dr. Michael Worobey is an assistant professor of ecology and evolutionary biology at the University of Arizona. In his research, he uses an evolutionary approach to understand the origins, emergence and control of pathogens, in particular RNA viruses and retroviruses such as HIV and influenza virus. He integrates fieldwork; theory and methodology; molecular biology; and especially the molecular evolutionary analysis of gene sequences in a phylogenetic framework.

    Dr. Worobey completed his doctoral degree in zoology in 2001 at the University of Oxford, where he then served as a postdoctoral researcher for two years before joining the University of Arizona.
