Reginald H. Garrett was educated in the Baltimore city public
schools and at the Johns Hopkins University, where he received
his Ph.D. in biology in 1968. Since that time, he has been at the
University of Virginia, where he is currently Professor Emeritus
of Biology. He is the author of previous editions of Biochemistry,
as well as Principles of Biochemistry (Cengage, Brooks/Cole),
and numerous papers and review articles on the biochemical,
genetic, and molecular biological aspects of inorganic nitrogen
metabolism. His research interests focused on the pathway of
nitrate assimilation in filamentous fungi. His investigations contributed
substantially to our understanding of the enzymology,
genetics, and regulation of this major pathway of biological
nitrogen acquisition. More recently, he has collaborated in
systems approaches to the metabolic basis of nutrition-related
diseases. His research has been supported by the National Institutes
of Health, the National Science Foundation, and private
industry. He is a former Fulbright Scholar at the Universität für
Bodenkultur in Vienna, Austria and served as Visiting Scholar at
the University of Cambridge on two separate occasions. During
the second, he was Thomas Jefferson Visiting Fellow in Downing
College. In 2003, he was Professeur Invité at the Université Paul
Sabatier/Toulouse III and the Centre National de la Recherche
Scientifique, Institute for Pharmacology and Structural Biology
in France. He taught biochemistry at the University of Virginia
for 46 years. He is a member of the American Society for
Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.
