Molly Schumer is an American scientist who studies evolution, hybridization, and population genetics. She is an assistant professor of biology at Stanford University.[1] She is a member of Stanford Bio-X and a Hannah H. Grey Fellow at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.[2][3]
Education
Schumer completed her Bachelor of Arts in 2009 at Reed College, earning Phi Beta Kappa.[4][5] She went on to pursue her PhD in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Princeton University (jointly supervised by Peter Andolfatto and Gil Rosenthal), finishing in February 2016.[6][7]
After her PhD, Schumer worked as a postdoctoral researcher at Columbia University with Molly Przeworski before joining the Harvard Society of Fellows in July 2016, where she worked in the lab of David Reich.[8][7] She became a Hanna H. Grey Fellow at HHMI in 2017, and was hired for her current assistant professorship at Stanford University in 2019.[3]
Research
Schumer's lab investigates biological hybrids and population genetics. Model organisms used in the lab are primarily fish and include the Gila topminnow, Xiphophorus (swordtail), and Julidochromis.[9]
Key Publications
Schumer has authored or co-authored multiple publications that have been cited 100 or more times.[10] As of January 2021, these include:
- "How common is homoploid hybrid speciation?" Evolution.[11]
- "Parallel molecular evolution in an herbivore community," Science.[12]
- "Phylogenomics reveals extensive reticulate evolution in Xiphophorus fishes," Evolution.[13]
- "Natural selection interacts with recombination to shape the evolution of hybrid genomes," Science.[14]
- "A serine cluster mediates BMAL1-dependent CLOCK phosphorylation and degradation," Cell Cycle.[15]
Awards, fellowships, and grants
Schumer won a 2019 Rosalind Franklin Young Investigator award from the Genetics Society of America and was named the 2018 Rising Star in Evolutionary Biology by the Atwood colloquium.[16][17] She has received many other awards and honors, including:
- Milton Fund Awardee, Harvard University[18]
- Women in Science Fellow, L'Oréal USA (2017)[19][20]
- Theodosius Dobzhansky Prize, Society for the Study of Evolution (2017)[8]
- Walbridge Award, Princeton Environmental Institute (2013)[21]
- Graduate Research Fellowship (NSF-GRFP), National Science Foundation (2011-2014)
- Goldwater Scholarship (2007)[22]
