David S. Barkley

Dave Barkley (1943 - ) was born in Austin, TX where he resided for two weeks. Ultimately he settled in Racine, WI until he moved to Hartford, CT to earn his B.S. at Trinity College. He then spent four years in the Biology Department at Princeton University where he earned an M.A. and Ph.D. in biology and biochemistry under the guidance of John T. Bonner and Malcolm S. Steinberg. He spent his early postdoctoral years in the Department of Neuropathology at Harvard Medical School before accepting a brief faculty position at the University of California, Los Angeles.

After publishing the "Dynamic Models ..." workbooks of electronic spreadsheet simulations in biochemistry, chemistry, and physics he began the task of moving these materials to a web based laboratory simulation called Virtlab which lived at http://www.virtlab.com. The demise of Adobe Flash heralded the demise of Virtlab.

He resides in both Los Angeles, CA and Jakarta, INDONESIA with his wife Medias Pratiwi.
