Systems Biology & Physiology Retreat 2009
The third annual retreat of the Systems Biology & Physiology Program at UC's Genome Research Institute on May 8, 2009 showcased the research of students, trainees and faculty in the SBP program, and highlighted systems approaches to research in modern physiology and clinical medicine.
 The 2009 Daniel L Kline Lecturer in Systems Biology & Physiology, Dennis Brown, PhD (pictured), of Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA, presented the keynote address, "Systems biology: A rose by any other name..." and described research from the MGH Program in Membrane Biology.
With a focus on aquaporin water channels and the vacuolar H+ ATPase, Dr Brown's research explores the recycling and targeting of transport proteins in renal epithelial cells. Dr Brown is the director of the MGH Program in Membrane Biology and associate director of the MGH Center for Systems Biology. After his address, Emily Kline-Marx presented Dr Brown with a plaque.
Students and trainees presented a total of 29 posters—up 50% over submissions in 2007 and 2008—making it a tough job for our poster judges, Theresa Powell, PhD, Jay Hove, PhD, and John MacLennan, PhD. Congratulations (and cash prizes) to: 1st—Michael Tranter, 2nd—Chang Xiao, and 3rd—Arshani Wansapura.
