Johann Peter Gogarten is a German-American biologist studying the early evolution of life. Born in Bad Oeynhausen, Germany, he studied plant physiology and membrane transport with Friedrich-Wilhelm Bentrup in Tübingen and Giessen. In 1987 he moved to the US as a postdoc to work with Lincoln Taiz at UC Santa Cruz. He currently is Distinguished Professor of Molecular and Cell Biology at the University of Connecticut in Storrs, CT.

  • Johann Peter Gogarten es un biólogo estadounidense, nacido en Alemania; que ha estudiado la evolución temprana de la vida. Aborigen de Bad Oeynhausen, Alemania, estudió fisiología vegetal y transporte de membrana con Friedrich-Wilhelm Bentrup, en la Universidad de Tubinga y en la de Giessen. En 1987 se mudó a EE. UU. por un postdoctorado con el Prof. Lincoln Taiz, en la Universidad de California en Santa Cruz. Actualmente es profesor distinguido de Biología Molecular y Celular en la Universidad de Connecticut en Storrs, CT. Gogarten buscó las raíces del árbol de la vida usando una duplicación de genes antiguos.​ También fue uno de los pioneros en reconocer la importancia y el alcance de la transferencia genética horizontal; y, su rol en la evolución microbiana.​​ Uno de los enfoques actuales de Gogarten en su investigación es la evolución de endonucleasa homing utilizando elementos genéticos parásitos (inteínas)​ y el entrelazamiento de la selección que se produce a nivel genético, poblacional y comunitario. (selección multinivel, unidad de selección). (es)
  • Johann Peter Gogarten is a German-American biologist studying the early evolution of life. Born in Bad Oeynhausen, Germany, he studied plant physiology and membrane transport with Friedrich-Wilhelm Bentrup in Tübingen and Giessen. In 1987 he moved to the US as a postdoc to work with Lincoln Taiz at UC Santa Cruz. He currently is Distinguished Professor of Molecular and Cell Biology at the University of Connecticut in Storrs, CT. Gogarten rooted the tree of life using an ancient gene duplication. He was also one of the pioneers to recognize the importance and the extent of horizontal gene transfer and its role in microbial evolution. One of Gogarten’s current focuses in his research is the evolution of homing endonuclease utilizing parasitic genetic elements (inteins) and the intertwining of selection occurring on the gene, population and the community level (multilevel selection, Unit of selection). J. Peter Gogarten was selected as a recipient of a 2009 Fulbright scholarship, a member of the CT Academy of Science and Engineering, and fellow of the American Academy of Microbiology and of the International Society for the Study of the Origin of Life.
