معرفی
Robert G. Fowler is a Lecturer in the Department of Biological Sciences at San José State University (SJSU). He holds a Doctor of Philosophy from Iowa State University, awarded in 1972. His academic focus spans genetics, molecular biology, and microbiology, with a particular emphasis on DNA repair mechanisms, mutagenesis pathways in Escherichia coli, and science education for non-science majors. His research has explored interactions among DNA repair pathways, spontaneous mutagenesis, and the impact of genetic fidelity on bacterial systems.
