After graduating from
Harvard University summa cum laude with an
A.B. in
Physics in 1989,
Gerstein studied under[CyrusChothia]]
of the British
Medical Research Council,
earning a
doctorate in biophysics and chemistry in 1993 from the
University of Cambridge. He then went on to
postdoctoral research in bioinformatics at
Stanford University from
1993-1996 under
Michael Levitt.
