Michael Feig is Professor of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology and Chemistry at Michigan State University. His academic training began with a degree in physics from the Technical University of Berlin and continued with studies of computational chemistry at the University of Houston and at The Scripps Research Institute in San Diego, California. Prof. Feig has authored over 50 publications, most related to the solvation of biomolecules. He has recently been awarded an Alfred P. Sloan fellowship and won awards from the American Chemical Society and Sigma Xi.
