May 23rd, 2022 4pm5:30pm Via Zoom https://umaryland.zoom.us/j/95069354261 "The amyloid state of proteins: structure, stability, inhibition, and disaggregation" PassanoAward Lecture David Eisenberg, Ph.D.Paul D. Boyer Chair of Molecular BiologyInvestigator, Howard Hughes Medical Institute University of California, Los Angeles PassanoAward is presented annually to recognize groundbreaking biomedical research. PassanoAward Laureate is Dr. David Eisenberg, Paul D. Boyer Chair of Molecular Biology and Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator at the University of California, Los Angeles. Dr. Eisenberg is being recognized for his extraordinary contributions to the understanding of protein structure and function, and to the quasicrystalline state of peptides referred to as amyloid. His analyses have revealed why certain proteins and peptides exhibit a propensity to form amyloid, a feature that is central to the pathophysiology of diverse neurologic diseases, including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and Huntington’s diseases, as well as a wide variety of systemic amyloid diseases. Dr. Eisenberg’s insights into amyloid formation have laid the foundation for rational treatments of these devastating diseases.
