He earned his Ph.D. at the University of Wisconsin\u2013Madison in 1984.[3] Grossman completed a postdoctoral fellowship in the Department of Cellular and Developmental Biology at Harvard University before joining MIT’s biology department in 1988.[4]Grossman has served as head of the MIT’s department of biology since 2014, when he succeeded Tania A. Baker.[4]Initially, his research was focused on characterization of bacterial chromosome segregation. His  group was among the first that identified the Spo0J protein, the homologue of ParB, responsible for the process of chromosome segregation in B. subtilis.[5] He later moved on to show that Spo0J binds to specific cis-sites on the DNA in order to implement its function and identified the sequences of those cis-sites which was termed ParS.[6]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4In 2006, Grossman received a life-saving heart transplant. He has discussed the experience publicly and encouraged others to consider organ donation.[7]References[edit]^ “Alan D. Grossman”. www.nasonline.org. Retrieved 2022-02-05.^ “Alan D. Grossman”.
