Ron Konopka
Ronald J. Konopka is a former American geneticist who studied chronobiology. He made his most notable contribution to the field while working with ''Drosophila'' in the lab of Seymour Benzer at the California Institute of Technology. During this work, Konopka discovered the ''period'' (''per'') gene, which controls the period of circadian rhythms.〔Greenspan, Ralph, (2003).

==Academic career==
Ron Konopka received his Ph.D. in Biology from the California Institute of Technology in 1972. In 1975, following his discovery of the ''period'' mutants, Konopka was awarded a faculty position at the California Institute of Technology. While there, Konopka's colleagues were critical of his reluctance to publish his work on the ''period'' gene, and Konopka was denied tenure. After his stay at Caltech, Konopka accepted a position at Clarkson University but was again denied tenure and subsequently exited the field of science.〔Barondes, S (2000) (A Real-life Arrowsmith Finds His Sinclair Lewis ) Retrieved April 13, 2011.〕 Konopka's career, interwoven with the work of his mentor, Seymour Benzer, and the other scientists working in Benzer's lab is narrated in ''Time, Love, Memory'' by Jonathan Weiner.
