John Streicher gives research talk at Jackson Laboratories
John Streicher, Ph.D., research assistant professor in the College of Osteopathic Medicine, travelled to Jackson Laboratories (JAX) in Bar Harbor, Maine, Friday, October 19, 2012, to speak at the Genetics Interest Group meeting.
Streicher presented a talk titled 鈥淣ovel Strategies for Drug Discovery and Development,鈥 which explored new strategies for forming molecular signaling profiles of diseases or conditions and discussed a drug discovery approach to fit the profile, yielding potentially better therapeutic results with fewer side effects. He spoke on the search for a kappa opioid receptor functionally selective agonist as well as designing a novel bivalent molecule with dual selectivity for mu opioid receptor and cholecystokinin receptor antagonism.
Streicher met with faculty members of JAX to discuss mutual interests, capabilities of 成人直播, and collaboration on future research. He also met with the director of Core Services, which could be particularly helpful to researchers at 成人直播 using mouse models.
