Laura Musselman was born and raised in New Jersey. She received a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Cornell University in 1995. From 1995 to 2000, Laura was a researcher in the Skin Bioscience Division at Unilever Research, working on in vitro models of skin aging and irritation. In 2000, she moved west to start her Ph.D. at the University of Utah. Laura earned her Ph.D. in Genetics studying Drosophila nuclear hormone receptor function in the laboratory of Carl Thummel. There, she developed an interest in metabolism and disease. Laura came to the division in 2007 to start a postdoctoral fellowship studying mechanisms of obesity and insulin resistance with Thomas Baranski, and became a Research Instructor in 2011.
