Garry Nolan

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Garry P. Nolan (born c. 1961) is an American

inventor, and business executive. He holds the Rachford and Carlota A. Harris Professor Endowed Chair in the Department of Pathology at Stanford University School of Medicine.[1][2] Nolan founded biotechnology companies, wrote numerous medical research papers, and has been active in ufology
.

Education

Nolan graduated in 1983 from Cornell University with a BS degree in biology with a specialization in genetics. In 1989, he received his PhD in genetics from Stanford University under Leonard Herzenberg before doing post-doctoral work with Nobel laureate David Baltimore at MIT, where he co-developed the 293T-based rapid retroviral production system and the cloning of the NF-κB p65/ RelA DNA regulatory factor.[2]

Research

His areas of research include autoimmunity and inflammation,

FDA-supported projects for Ebola,[10] influenza, Zika virus, and COVID-19
, as well as continuing Nolan's immune-tumor interface in many human cancers.

Companies

In 1996, Nolan founded the biotechnology company Rigel, Inc. with colleagues Donald Payan, James Gower, Thomas Raffin, and Ronald Garren in South San Francisco.[11] In 2003, he established the biotech company Nodality, Inc., which develops "personalized tests for cancer and autoimmune diseases."[12][2] Big data company BINA Technology was founded in 2010 and bought out by Roche in 2014 for $107 million.[13][14][15] In 2011, he founded Apprise, which focused on cell analysis using split-pool technology. Nolan later sold Apprise to Roche, with whom he co-founded another startup, Scale Bio, which also focuses on split-pool technology.[16] Along with three postdocs, Sean Bendall, Michael Angelo, and Harris Feinberg, Nolan founded Ionpath in 2014. This company is active in spatial proteomics.[17][18] In 2015, with postdocs Yury Goltsev and Nikolay Samusik, he founded Akoya Biosciences, which commercializes Nolan's co-Detection by indexing (CODEX) technology.[19][20]

Awards and honors

Nolan has received numerous awards and fellowships.[2]

Ufology and belief in extraterrestrial contact

See also: Ufology

In 2012, Nolan began analysis on the

mummified human stillbirth with genetic bone defects and gene mutation causing deformity.[23][24][25][26][27]

According to Nolan, he was approached by "some people representing the government and an aerospace corporation to help them understand the medical harm that had come to some individuals, related to supposed interactions with an anomalous craft" because "they were interested in the kinds of blood analysis that my lab can do".[28]

Nolan is the lead author a study about

New York Times columnist Ezra Klein interviewed journalist and UFO author Leslie Kean in June 2023, Kean told Klein that Nolan "knows David Grusch very well and vouches for him".[34]

Nolan co-founded The Sol Foundation with sociocultural anthropologist Peter Skafish on August 15, 2023.[35]
