Stephen Young*

Stephen Young grew up in Topeka, Kansas and studied history at Princeton University. After obtaining a medical degree from Washington University in St. Louis, he trained in internal medicine at UCSF and cardiology at UCSD. He did a postdoctoral research fellowship in lipid metabolism at UCSD with Dr. Joseph Witztum. After stints on the faculty at UCSD and UCSF (Gladstone Institutes), he moved to UCLA in 2004. Along with two UCLA faculty colleagues (Loren Fong and Anne Beigneux), he runs a research laboratory focused on plasma lipid metabolism and diseases of the nuclear envelope. Stephen Young is a member of the National Academy of Sciences. He also holds the Edward W. Carter Chair in Internal Medicine.
