John A. Cidlowski, PhD
Senior Scientist for the Molecular Endocrinology Group
NIH/NIEHS (National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences)
Title of Talk: “When Steroid Receptors Meet in the Nuclei of the Cells”
This seminar will be in 1131 Bioinformatics.
Please join us and show support for our seminar speakers!
(For those unable to attend, a zoom link is available upon request to MiMi Le.)
Host: Henrik Dohlman
The Molecular Endocrinology Group “studies steroid hormones, which regulate tissue-specific gene expression in animals via receptor dependent intracellular signal transduction pathways.
A second major interest of the laboratory focuses on evaluating the mechanisms involved in the regulation of apoptosis in normal and neoplastic cells. Research is aimed at the identification and cloning of genes that are responsible for both the initiation and execution of apoptosis.”
Major areas of research include:
- Glucocorticoid receptors and their actions on the inflammatory response
- Regulation of apoptosis in normal and neoplastic cells
- Genetically modified animal models for studying glucocorticoid actions
