Dr. Rosemary (Rosie) Jeanne Redfield is a microbiologist at the University of British Columbia where she has worked as a faculty member in the Department of Zoology since 1993.[1]

Education

Redfield completed her undergraduate degree in biochemistry at Monash University.[2] She continued her education at McMaster University where she completed her MSc in 1980. Her thesis titled, "Methylation and chromatin conformation of adenovirus type 12 DNA sequences in transformed cells," dealt with the chromatin structure and SDNA methylation.[3]

Redfield received her PhD in Biological Sciences from Stanford University under Allan M. Campbell. She also completed post-doctoral work at Harvard University with Richard Charles Lewontin and Johns Hopkins School of Medicine with Hamilton O. Smith, an American microbiologist and 1978 Nobel Laureate.[4] She played an early role in the refutation of the GFAJ-1 results of Felisa Wolfe-Simon.[5]
