Faculty
in Pharmacology at The University of Iowa
|
|
Faculty in the Department of Pharmacology conduct research in six fundamental
areas:
- Cancer and the Cell
Cycle
- Hormones and Growth Factors
- Membrane Trafficking
- Neuroscience
- Mechanisms of Pain
- Receptors and Signal
Transduction
- Vascular Biology and Hypertension
Below are brief descriptions
of each faculty member's area of research interest. More detailed descriptions
can be obtained by clicking on a name below or in the column on the
left. Post-doctoral and undergraduate research positions are frequently
available in the laboratories of department faculty. Interested individuals
should contact faculty members directly. |
