Area of Focus
Bioengineering and Biotechnology
Published July 1, 1996
ABOUT THOMAS' WORK
Thomas Daniel is a biologist whose work combines the disciplines of zoology, engineering, and mathematics to study the neuromuscular dynamics of human and animal motion.
Daniel studies how organisms interact with their environment and the mechanical properties of each organism’s components. He creates testable hypotheses based on imaginative models and creates the necessary hardware and software for his experiments, incorporating new technologies from mathematics and engineering to help increase our understanding of biological principles. His research integrates neural stimulation patterns, muscle mechanical properties, and fluid mechanics to understand coordinated locomotion in leeches and in flying hawkmoths.
BIOGRAPHY
Daniel has been teaching at the University of Washington since 1984, where he is the Joan and Richard Komen Professor of Biology and chair of the Department of Biology. He has also been a member of the external graduate faculty at the University of Oregon. He has published numerous articles in such journals as Acta Astronautica and the Journal of Experimental Biology.
Daniel received a B.S. (1976) and an M.S. (1978) from the University of Wisconsin, and a Ph.D. (1982) from Duke University.

关于托马斯的工作
托马斯-丹尼尔是一位生物学家,他的工作结合了动物学、工程学和数学的学科,研究人类和动物运动的神经肌肉动力学。
丹尼尔研究生物体如何与环境互动,以及每个生物体组成部分的机械特性。 他在富有想象力的模型基础上创造出可测试的假设,并为他的实验创造必要的硬件和软件,结合数学和工程的新技术,帮助提高我们对生物原理的理解。 他的研究整合了神经刺激模式、肌肉机械特性和流体力学,以了解水蛭和飞鹰蛾的协调运动。
个人简历
丹尼尔自1984年以来一直在华盛顿大学任教,他是琼和理查德-科门的生物学教授和生物系主任。 他也曾是俄勒冈大学的外部研究生教师的成员。 他在Acta Astronautica和Journal of Experimental Biology等杂志上发表了许多文章。
丹尼尔在威斯康星大学获得学士学位(1976年)和硕士学位(1978年),并在杜克大学获得博士学位(1982年)。
