- Arieh Warshel is a Distinguished Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of Southern California. He is known for his work on computational biochemistry and biophysics, and, in particular, for having pioneered computer simulations of the function of biological systems, and for developing what is now known as Computational Enzymology. Arieh Warshel was born in Kibbutz Sde-Nahum in Israel in 1940. After serving in the Israeli Army (final rank Captain), he attended the Technion in Haifa, where he received his BSc degree in Chemistry, Summa Cum Laude, in 1966. He subsequently earned both MSc and PhD degrees in Chemical Physics (1967 and 1969 respectively) from the Weizmann Institute of Science, together with Shneior Lifson. After his PhD, he did postdoctoral work at Harvard University. From 1972 to 1976, he was at the Weizmann Institute and at the MRC Laboratory for Molecular Biology in Cambridge, England. In 1976, he joined the faculty of the Department of Chemistry at USC, where he is a Distinguished Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry. Warshel has been elected a member of the United States National Academy of Sciences, a fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry (FRSC), and a fellow of the Biophysical Society (2000). He was additionally awarded the Technion Award for best third-year student in Chemistry (1965), the Mifal-Hapays Prize (1969), the Alfred P. Sloan Fellowship (1978-1980), the USC Associated Award for Creativity in Research (1981), the 1993 Annual Award of the International Society of Quantum Biology and Pharmacology, the Tolman Medal (2003), and the 2006 President’s Award for Computational Biology from the ISQBP.
