DOI: 10.1039/TF9666200848 The author is grateful to Dr. B. Alder, Dr. D. Caspar and Dr. A. Katchalsky for many helpful discussions and critical reading of the manuscript
He received his Ph.D. in Biophysics in 1965 from Harvard University with a healthy dose of thermodynamics during 1962-1964 at the Weizmann Institute of Science with Aharon Katchalsky and Shneior Lifson. Following two post-doctoral years at MIT (1965-1967) with Irwin Oppenheim, he moved to the NIH, where he has dedicated himself to formulating and measuring the electrostatic, electrodynamic (van der Waals), solvation, and entropic forces that govern cellular organization and transport.
