Michael Morris Rosbash is a distinguished American geneticist and chronobiologist known for his pioneering work on circadian clocks. He is a professor and researcher at Brandeis University and an investigator at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. Rosbash achieved major milestones in the field, such as cloning the Drosophila period gene in 1984 and proposing the Transcription Translation Negative Feedback Loop in 1990. His research also led to the discovery of crucial genes related to circadian rhythms through forward genetics. In recognition of his contributions, Rosbash was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 2003 and was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2017.
