Julie A. Theriot (born 1967) is a cell biologist, who studies the molecular mechanics and dynamics of cell movement and organization. Her work spans many fields from microbiologytobiophysics, and lab studies eukaryotic cell motility as well as the hijacking of the cytoskeleton by intracellular parasites like listeria.[1] She has also published work that describes the mechanisms of Galvanotaxis in vertebrate cells. She is a professor at the University of Washington, Department of Biology, a continuing Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) Investigator, and Chief Scientist at the Allen Institute for Cell Science.[2] She was previously a professor at the Stanford University School of Medicine,[3] and before that, she was a Predoctoral Fellow and Investigator at HHMI.[4] She was also a fellow at the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research.[5]

She graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with a B.S. in Biology and Physics in 1988, and from the University of California, San Francisco, with a Ph.D. in Cell Biology in 1993. Her work has investigated bacterial infections, such as Shigella, and Listeria.[6]
