[2018 'Author File' in Nature Methods]

John was born in San Jose, California and was the first in his family to graduate from high school. As an undergrad at UC Santa Barbara, he studied Biochemistry, and carried out research in Dan Morse's lab on the molecular mechanisms of biomineralization. In 2012, he earned his Ph.D. from Caltech, where he worked under mentorship of David Tirrell on cell-selective methods for tracking protein synthesis in living organisms. Between 2012-2015, he was a post-doc at UC San Diego, training under Roger Tsien (2008 Nobel Laureate in Chemistry) and developing new tools to image cells and biomolecules by correlative light and electron microscopy. He began his appointment as Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Boston University in July 2015 and became the Reidy Family Career Development Professor in September 2016.
