Hudson Closing Seminar: “Targeting the TGF- superfamily in human disease – a retrospective view”, 8 June

Wednesday 8 June, 3-4pm, Level 3 Boardrooms A&B, Hudson Institute

Presented by Associate Professor Craig Harrison, Head, Growth Factor Signalling Group, Centre for Endocrinology and Metabolism
Hudson Institute of Medical Research

Associate Professor Craig Harrison moved to PHI in 1999 as a postdoctoral fellow with David Robertson. In 2001 with the support of a NHMRC CJ Martin Fellowship he moved to the Salk Institute in La Jolla to work with the late Wylie Vale. He returned to PHI in 2004 where he established his own group working on the TGF- family of ligands and their receptors. His work on structure–function relationships in ligand-binding and the development of novel antagonists has received wide recognition. Craig has been an enthusiastic contributor to the life of the Institute through service on a number of committees.
Craig has accepted a Senior Lecturer position in the Physiology Department at Monash University. Craig’s team including Kelly Walton will go with him to Physiology.
