Greg Bowman is a professor of biophysics at Johns Hopkins University, where he has been a faculty member in the Department of Biophysics since 2005. His research primarily focuses on the structural mechanisms of chromatin remodelers. He earned his undergraduate degree in biology from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and completed his PhD in molecular biology at Princeton University, where he studied actin-binding proteins and an enterotoxin from rotavirus using X-ray crystallography. Following his PhD, Bowman conducted postdoctoral research at the University of California, Berkeley, where he concentrated on structural biology, specifically the structure of the pentameric RFC clamp loader bound to the trimeric PCNA sliding clamp and how it suggests DNA-stimulated ATP hydrolysis facilitates the release of the clamp.
