He is founder of the social enterprise Cambia and a Professor of Biological Innovation at the Queensland University of Technology. In 2003 he was named by Scientific American as one of the world's 50 most influential technologists, and is renowned for his work on making science-enabled innovation more widely accessible.〔Scientific American Website: The 2003 Scientific American 50 List of Winners (), URL accessed on 30 May 2006〕 He was profiled in 'Open & Shut: The Basement Interviews',〔http://poynder.blogspot.com/2006/09/interview-with-richard-jefferson.html〕 and other major media, including in an Economist Feature 'Grassroots Innovator' in 2001.〔http://www.economist.com/node/885178〕 == Education == Born in Santa Cruz, California, Jefferson studied at the University of California, Santa Barbara at the College of Creative Studies, and obtained his BA (Molecular Genetics) in 1978. He then moved to the University of Colorado Boulder for his Ph.D., where he first developed the GUS reporter system, isolating, sequencing and characterizing the first microbial glucuronidase,〔〔Jefferson, R.
