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. |
