He founded and produces iBioSeminars, lectures by leading biologists which are made freely available on the web. Vale co-directed the 7 week Physiology Course at the Marine Biological Laboratory, transforming it to a venue of interdisciplinary research in physics and biology (2004-2008). His laboratory developed MicroManager, a widely used open source and freely available software package for microscopy. He also developed an educational web site on microscopy for elementary school children. Vale is active in helping young scientists in India by starting the very popular Young Investigator Meetings as well as an interactive web site (IndiaBioscience.org) for India biologists to obtain information on jobs/grants/collaborations. Dr. Vale’s awards include the Pfizer Award in Enzyme Chemistry (1991), the Young Investigator Award from the Biophysical Society (1993), the Wiley Prize in Biomedical Sciences (2012), and the Albert Lasker Award for Basic Medical Research (2012). He was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 2001 and to the American Academy of Sciences in 2002.
