Charles R. Cantor[1] (born August 26, 1942) is an American molecular geneticist who, in conjunction with David Schwartz, developed pulse field gel electrophoresis for very large DNA molecules.[2] Cantor's three-volume book Biophysical Chemistry,[3][4][5] co-authored with Paul Schimmel, was an influential textbook in the 1980s and 1990s.
