Séminaire de l’Institut Jacques Monod – André Nussenzweig

Invité par l’équipe Prioleau, André Nussenzweig (Laboratory for Genome Integrity at the National Cancer Institute, USA) présentera un séminaire de l’Institut Jacques Monod sur le thème :

Genome Stability in Post-Mitotic and Mitotic Cells

Résumé :

Andre Nussenzweig is a NIH Distinguished Investigator and Chair of the Laboratory for Genome Integrity at the National Cancer Institute in the United States and a world wide expert in the study of genome stability and DNA damage repair. His scientific career is marked by multiple seminal contributions that have shaped our current thinking about DNA damage repair and how it can be harnessed for therapy. As a scientist initially trained in experimental atomic physics, including a postdoctoral stint in Paris with Nobel Laureate Serge Haroch, who then switched field to dedicate his independent research program in molecular biology, Dr. Nussenzweig brings a unique perspective to identifying and solving complext biological problems. Dr. Nussenzweig’s impactful research has been recognized with more than 25 major awards and recognitions including membership in EMBO, the National Academy of Medicine and that National Academy of Sciences.
