Lewis J. Feldman is a professor of plant biology at the University of California, Berkeley and is Associate Dean for Academic Affairs in the College of Natural Resources.[1] Feldman has taught at Berkeley since 1978.[2] He received Berkeley's Distinguished Teaching Award in 1996.[2][3] Feldman's research focuses on regulation of development in meristems/stem cells, root gravitropism, and redox regulation of plant development.

After graduating in 1963 from Sunset High School in Hayward, California, Feldman attended the University of California, Davis, earning a B.S. in 1967, then an M.S., both in Botany.[2] He received a Ph.D. in Biology from Harvard University in 1975.[1]

Feldman is a fellow of the California Academy of Sciences.[2][4]


Honors and awards

  • CNR Teaching Award - College of Natural Resources - 1992[1]
  • Distinguished Teaching Award - University of California, Berkeley - 1996[2][3]
  • Outstanding Mentorship of Graduate Student Instructors - 1999[5]

The hypothesis advanced here is that the signal transduction pathway for gravitaxis (gravitropism) evolved by building on and/or incorporating signal transduction steps which evolved earlier in connection with prokaryotes responding to light.
