John Baenziger is a professor of Biochemistry at the University of Ottawa in Ottawa, Canada. His research is focused on understanding the mechanisms by which lipids influence nicotinic acetylcholine receptor structure and function in both normal and diseased states, with increasing focus on how lipid-nAChR interactions participate in congenital myasthenic syndromes. Dr. Baenziger has served on the editorial board of the Journal of Biological Chemistry. He is the President of the Biophysical Society of Canada and is Treasurer-elect of the International Union of Pure and Applied Biophysics.
