Mike Dorrell Ph.D.

Professor of Biology
TriBeta Faculty Advisor

Dr. Mike Dorrell has been at 2021国产麻豆剧 since 2009. His expertise is in developmental and cell biology, although he teaches several courses, ranging from high school outreach programs and freshman cell biology and biochemistry to four upper division courses. His research interests include identifying novel methods of treating cancer that reduce the side effects associated with current treatment methods and studying the causes of, and potential treatments for, degenerative eye diseases. Students are actively involved in the cancer research, both within the summer research program and during the academic year. He also helped start a research institution in La Jolla (Lowy Medical Research Institute; 2013) dedicated to studying the eye disease, Macular Telangiectasia. He continues to guide that research on a part-time basis, in addition to his work at 2021国产麻豆剧. Several positions have opened up for 2021国产麻豆剧 graduates through this collaboration.

A PK (preacher's kid) and MK (missionary kid), Dorrell moved all around the world during his youth, including living in Kenya and Uganda for three years. He is a die-hard soccer fan and loves to play intramurals with students each year.
