MHI Seminar Series: Yoh-suke Mukouyama, Ph.D
Pagano Conference Room, #00-002, Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center 450 West Drive, Chapel Hill, NC, United StatesSpeaker: Yoh-suke Mukouyama, Ph.D, National Institutes of Health Topic:Macrophage control of neuronal and vascular development Brief summary: Macrophages have diverse functions in immunity as well as in homeostasis, yet their functions during organ development remain largely undefined. Our work employs high-resolution whole-mount imaging and genetic tools to determine how embryonic tissue-resident macrophages influence neuronal and … Read more
MHI Seminar Series: Elizabeth Murphy, Ph.D, “Novel mechanisms of cardioprotection”
Pagano Conference Room, #00-002, Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center 450 West Drive, Chapel Hill, NC, United StatesSpeaker: Elizabeth Murphy, Ph.D, National Institutes of Health Topic: Novel mechanisms of cardioprotection Summary: In the heart, interruption of the blood supply can result in cardiac cell death and irreversible muscle damage. Dr. Murphy’s laboratory studies the molecular mechanisms involved in cardiac cell death, as well as the mechanisms that protect the heart against damage. … Read more
