John Galanis
About
Dr. John C. Galanis is an ophthalmologist based in St. Louis, Missouri, where he maintains a private practice. He is licensed in Missouri.
His published research reflects an unusually broad scientific background, spanning physical chemistry, soft matter physics, and biomedical topics. Work appearing in Physical Review Letters, Physical Review E, The Journal of Chemical Physics, and Soft Matter includes studies on liquid demixing in electric fields, phase separation dynamics, and the self-assembly behavior of granular materials. A separate line of research, published in The Journal of Biological Chemistry, examined how Bax-type apoptotic proteins interact with lipid bilayers. One publication directly relevant to clinical ophthalmology evaluated the performance of five portable tonometers, instruments used to measure intraocular pressure. Across roughly a dozen publications, he has contributed to peer-reviewed literature in both the physical sciences and medicine.
