He remained at Penn for medical school but discovered during his studies that he was more interested in research, particularly after spending a summer visiting the laboratory of Sydney Brenner. He decided to pursue a Ph.D. and became one of Penn's first M.D.-Ph.D. students, working with Robin Hochstrasser on molecular spectroscopy applied to heme proteins such as cytochrome c.[3] He received his M.D. in 1964 and his Ph.D. in 1967.[1] Shortly before finishing his Ph.D. research, he was drafted into the military and chose to fulfill his military obligation through the Public Health Service, where he could conduct research at the National Institutes of Health.[3] Academic careerEaton has spent his entire research career at the NIH after arriving as a medical officer in the Public Health Service in 1967. He joined the then-new Laboratory of Chemical Physics shortly after beginning at NIH and became its chief in 1986.[4] Eaton's early work at NIH built from his work on heme proteins, focusing mainly on hemoglobin and the abnormal aggregation states of the mutant form of the protein found in sickle-cell anemia. In the early 1990s, Eaton began to focus on theoretical and experimental studies of protein folding and has been particularly influential in the study and design of fast-folding proteins.[3] Awards and honors
