Lonnie Lee VanZandt

Lonnie Lee Van Zandt (1937–1995) was a professor of physics at Purdue University in Indiana, USA.

Van Zandt participated in the formation of the molecular biological physics group at Purdue and studied the dynamics of dissolved DNA polymers.[1][2] He also performed pioneering research on the effect of microwaves on DNA.[3] His PhD thesis in Physics at Harvard University focused on the "Effects of Static Spin Density Waves on Electron Transport".[4]

Notable Graduate Students: Bryan F. Putnam (1981)

gollark: So they went to complain... but were told it hadn't actually been turned on yet.
gollark: There was this funny story I read where some company was setting up a new phone tower, but after it was finished "electrosensitive" people complained about it.
gollark: Well, I'm sensitive to phones in that I can... perceive them.
gollark: Seems fine.
gollark: I mean, the worst thing radio/microwaves can do is... well, cook you, if you stand too near a high-powered transmitter, but otherwise not much!
