Prof. Carl-Henrik Heldin, Ludwig Institute of Cancer Research, Sweden.
Participating Speakers
Prof. Kari Alitalo, Prof. Tony Burgess, Prof. Graham Carpenter, Prof. Melanie Cobb, Prof. Paolo Comoglio, Prof. Brian Druker, Dr. Stevan Hubbard, Prof. Tony Hunter, Dr. Nancy Hynes, Dr. Andrius Kazlauskas, Dr. Moosa Mohammadi, Prof. Benjamin Neel, Prof. Elena Pasquale, Prof. Tony Pawson, Prof. Marco Pierotti, Prof. Bart Vanhaesebroeck, Dr. Morris White and Prof. Yosef Yarden.
Topics Covered
in vivo and in vitro function of the EGF, insulin, PDGF, HGF, VEGF and Eph receptor families – Structure of PTK receptors and regulation of their kinase activities – PTK receptors in vivo – Negative regulation of PTK receptors – Intracellular signal transduction pathways activated by PTK receptors – Clinical use of PTK receptor antagonists.
The Format
Each of the seminars is specially commissioned from a leading world expert in a user friendly format of animated slides with synchronized narration. The talks preserve each speaker’s personality and approach allowing you to experience world class seminars at your own pace, wherever you want and as often as you want.
"These talks are presented by an extremely impressive group of experts. Tyrosine kinases are now a major class of drug targets in many disease contexts, so these will be a great resource for students of biochemistry and biology, and provide up-to-date information for researchers in industry and academia. The talks are easy to listen to, incredibly informative and highly recommended."
Dr. Margaret Frame, Beatson Institute for Cancer Research, Cancer Research UK Beatson Laboratories
