"My teaching and research interests gelled as a Master's student at SF State as I explored the intricacies of the cell biology and ecology of protists.  So, it was exciting and satisfying to join the faculty, and pass this on to others."

Dr. Antipa joined the faculty in 1978.  Author of over 50 publications, his research interests include cell biology, ciliate development and electron microscopy.  His work has been funded by grants from the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, the Department of Energy and the Office of Water Resource Research.

He is a member of the American Society for Cell Biology, Bay Area Biosystematists, Microscopy Society of America, Northern California Society for Microscopy, San Francisco Microscopical Society and International Society of Protistologists.

Dr. Antipa continues to explore the fascination of unicellular, eukaryotic protists.
