Pawson Gives NIH Lecture, Feb. 4

By Laurent Castellucci

Signal transduction -- how cells translate external signals into internal effects -- is a major element in the regulation of many aspects of cellular behavior. Dr. Anthony J. Pawson has been at the forefront of elucidating the mechanistic basis of the protein-protein interactions so essential to this process, opening a window on what happens within the cell itself to produce the final result in reaction to an external signal. In a talk entitled, "Protein Modules in Signal Transduction," Pawson, head of the Programme in Molecular Biology and Cancer at the Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute of Mount Sinai Hospital, Toronto, and professor in the department of molecular and medical genetics of the University of Toronto, will present an NIH Director's Lecture at 3 p.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 4, in Masur Auditorium, Bldg. 10.
