Education and early career

Green received her B.A. in Biology from Pomona College in Claremont, California. She went on to study with David L. Kirk at Washington University in St. Louis where she studied development in the model organism Volvox carteri. She obtained her PhD in Cell and Developmental Biology in 1982. After obtaining her PhD Green moved to Chicago where she carried out postdoctoral training at Northwestern University Medical School in the laboratory of Robert D. Goldman, whose work included the identification and characterization of the intermediate filament cytoskeleton. Toward the end of this time period, Dr. Green set out to clone, sequence and characterize desmoplakin, an essential molecule that links the intermediate filament cytoskeleton to intercellular junctions known as desmosomes. Her work on desmoplakin laid the foundation for an independent career beginning in 1987 as a faculty member in the Department of Pathology at Northwestern. [3]

Leadership and service

Green is the Deputy Editor-in Chief of the Journal of Cell Science. [4]
