Gerald H Pollack received his PhD in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Pennsylvania in 1968. He then joined the University of Washington faculty and is now Professor of Bioengineering. For years, he had researched muscles and how they contract. It struck him as odd that the most common ideas about muscle contraction did not involve water; despite the fact muscle tissue consists of 99 percent water molecules.
