Dr. Weinreich received his Ph.D. in biochemistry from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 1993. He then was a postdoctoral fellow in the laboratory of Bruce Stillman, director of the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, New York, from 1993 to 2000. Dr. Weinreich joined VARI as a Scientific Investigator in March 2000 and was promoted to Senior Scientific Investigator in 2008.
