Education
Herschlag received a B.S. in Biochemistry from SUNY-Binghamton in 1982. He began his graduate studies at University of Minnesota then moved on to complete his PhD in Biochemistry at Brandeis University under W.P. Jencks in 1988.[2]
Career
Herschlag was a Helen Hay Whitney Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Colorado at Boulder from 1989 to 1992.[3] He conducted post-doctoral research on the mechanism of the newly discovered RNA self-splicing reaction in the lab of Tom Cech.
In 1992, Herschlag joined the faculty of the Biochemistry department in the Stanford University School of Medicine, earning tenure in 1997. He was promoted to full professor in 2002.
In 2011, he was appointed the Senior Associate Dean of Graduate Education and Postdoctoral Affairs for the Stanford University School of Medicine.[4][5]
