The structure and function of ion channels with emphasis on K+ channels is the subject of my research. These integral membrane proteins mediate the passive flow of K+ ions across cell membranes, ...

Throughout my career I have studied split-brain and other types of neurologic patients, in an effort to understand both the functional lateralization in the human brain and how the cerebral ...

Judith Frydman grew up in Buenos Aires, Argentina, where she majored in Chemistry and received her PhD in Biochemistry from the University of Buenos Aires. She carried out her postdoctoral training ...

My current research topics are in the fields of econometrics and economic theory, specifically, the economics of aging, savings behavior, demographic trends, housing mobility, dynamics of health and ...

Yoshihiro Kawaoka heads the Influenza Research Institute of the University of Wisconsin-Madison and is Professor of the Institute of Medical Science of the University of Tokyo. Dr. Kawaoka is a ...

My primary work has involved the biochemical signaling pathways that regulate normal mammalian cell growth and the defects that can cause cell transformation. More than a decade ago, my laboratory ...

My research program is focused on understanding the mechanisms by which tumors develop from once-normal cells resident in their natural tissue microenvironments, a process that evidently involves the ...

W. Hugh Woodin, PhD is Professor of Philosophy and of Mathematics at Harvard University. He earned his BS in Mathematics from Caltech and his PhD in Mathematics from the University of California, ...

My primary research interests include nuclear astrophysics, neutron stars, quark matter and relativistic nuclear collisions, condensed matter physics, liquid helium, and many-body problems.

As a geneticist and biochemist, I have studied molecular principles underlying the innate immune system of plants. I am particularly interested in understanding how immune sensors perceive the ...

I have studied the mechanisms whereby proteins are translocated across biological membranes. This study has led us to isolate the "preprotein translocase" from E. coli. It consists of a multisubunit, ...

Interests include national security and intelligence involving phenomena, technology, and equipment for sea, air, land and space for/with U.S. government; limitation of arms, both nuclear and ...
