Ruth Nussinov (Hebrew: פרופסור רות נוסינוב) is an Israeli-American biologist who works as a Professor in the Department of Human Genetics, School of Medicine at Tel Aviv University and is the Senior Principal Scientist and Principal Investigator at the National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health.[1] Nussinov is also the Editor in Chief for the journal PLOS Computational Biology.[2]

Nussinov proposed the first dynamic programming approach for nucleic acid secondary structure prediction, this method is now known as the Nussinov algorithm.[3][4]

Career[edit]

Ruth Nussinov received her B.Sc in Microbiology from University of Washington in 1966, her M.Sc in Biochemistry from Rutgers University in 1967 and her Ph.D. in Biochemistry from Rutgers in 1977. Her thesis was titled Secondary structure analysis of nucleic acids.[5] She was a fellow at the Weizmann Institute and worked as a visiting scientist at Berkeley and at Harvard. She took a position at Tel Aviv University in 1985 as Associate Professor and was promoted to Professor in 1990.[2]

Besides her work on nucleic acid secondary structure prediction, Nussinov is also regarded as a pioneer in DNA sequence analysis for her work in the early 1980s.[2]

Nussinov has authored over 500 scientific papers and is the Editor in Chief of the journal PLOS Computational Biology.[2] She also serves on the editorial boards of the journals Physical Biology, Proteins, BMC Bioinformatics and the Journal of Biological Chemistry.[6][7][8][9]

Awards[edit]

Nussinov was made a Fellow of the Biophysical Society in 2011, for her "extraordinary contributions to advances in computational biology on both nucleic acids and proteins".[10] She became a Fellow of the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB) in 2013.[11] In 2018, Nussinov was awarded the ISCB Senior Scientist Award.[12] In 2020, Nussinov was elected Fellow of the American Physical Society.[13]

Cell 153(2): 293-305, 2013The article Allostery in disease and in drug discovery. Nussinov R, Tsai CJ: Cell 153: 293-305, 2013 highlighted in F1000 Structural Biology: "So far, allostery has been largely described as a molecular event that occurs in a population of a single-protein species. But, in this insightful review, Nussinov and Tsai suggest that the concept should be extended to explain the regulation of functional cellular networks in which multiple protein components participate. Another important take-home message is that the new concept can be a useful theoretical framework for drug-development strategies. The authors also nicely present the historical overview on the efforts to explain the allostery at a molecular level. So, I strongly recommend this review to students in the wide areas such as biochemistry, biophysics, and pharmacology”, 2013• The manuscript "Single Mutations in Tau Modulate the Populations of Fibril Conformers through Seed Selection" in Angewandte Chemie has been designated a "Hot Paper", 2014• Awarded the The Michael and Ada Anbar Lectureship in the Biophysical Sciences, Buffalo University, 2014• The biophysical students in the Chemistry and Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry Departments at Yale University voted an invitation as a “Student Invited Speaker to help keep this continuing BPTG tradition of prestigious speakers.” 2014• Theodore von Kármán Fellow Internationally recognized scientist, RWTH Aachen University, Institute for Advanced Simulation and Institute for Neuroscience and Medicine, Forschungszentrum Jülich, and German Research School for Simulation Sciences, 2015Committees and Boards:Advisory committee reviewing the Department of Bioinformatics in Bergen, Norway; Site visit committee of DCRT (Division of Computing Resources and Technology, NIH); Site visit committee GMD Institute of Algorithms, Bonn, Germany; NCI Steering Committee for Bioinformatics and Computational Biology NCI; NCI Steering Committee for Systems Biology; NCI Immunology Center of Excellence; Program Committee, Intelligent Systems in Molecular Biology Brazil, 2006; Program Committee, Intelligent Systems in Molecular Biology-ECCB, Vienna, 2007; Advisory Committee Modeling Protein Interactions; Numerous tenure andNussinov-5promotion committees and evaluations; Chair, Graduate Studies in Bioinformatics; Organized the NIH-INRIA (France) Workshop; Program Committee, Intelligent Systems in Molecular Biology; External Review Committee for the Science Focus Area for Basic Energy Research, Los Alamos National Laboratory to assess LANL capability to address Gene Function Discovery; PC Member of Bioinformatics Track, 2008; Tenure/Tenure Track Committee at the NIH, 2008; Site Visitor, Biomolecular Modeling Laboratory, Cancer Research UK London Research Institute, 2009; Chair, NIH-wide Earl Stadtman Investigator in Computational Biology, 2009/2010; Program Committee, ECCB, Protein and Nucleotide Structure, 2010; Member, Earl Stadtman NIH-wide tenure-track Investigator Search Committee, 2010, 2011; Invitation, Earl Stadtman NIH-wide tenure-track Investigator Search Committee, 2011, 2012; NSF external advisory board of the University of Chicago, multiscale theory and simulation for bimolecular systems, 2011-2013; Assisted in many other meeting organizations;Organizing Committee, Modeling of Protein Interactions, November 2012; Faculty Committee, Uppsala University, February 2013; National Academy of Sciences, Molecular Dynamics ANTON Award Committee (2013); The NIH Stadtman Investigator Search Committee in Computational Biology, 2013/2014; Review Committee, Universite' de Toulouse, LAAS, CNRS, Toulouse, France, April, 2014; Site Visit Committee, Quinquennial Review, London Cancer Research Institute, London, UK, 2009; Invited to Site Visit the theory group, Los Alamos, 2010; Invited by AERES (Agence d’Evaluation de la Recherche et des etablissements d’Enseignement Superieur) to Site Visit CEA Saclay in Paris, 2010; Site Visit Committee, RWTH Aachen University and the Forschungszentrum Julich, German Research School, responsible for the Laboratory of Computational Biophysics, 2011; Site Visit Committee, Chair, Site visit of the German Research School for Simulation Science, FZ-Julich and RWTH Aachen, 2011; NSF Advisory Board, University of Chicago, 2013; Advisory Board, responding to the recommendation "Thought Leaders from the Various Structural Biology Disciplines..." to overview "the future of structural biology is hybrid" in the Protein Data Bank (PDB).
