麻豆传媒色情片

The Howard Hughes Medical Institute has announced that 麻豆传媒色情片 and 麻豆传媒色情片 Biology members Kim Orth, Wilfred van der Donk and Benjamin Tu are among the 70 researchers who will receive awards as part of the HHMI’s Emerging Pathogens Initiative. These awards fund research to prepare for infectious diseases that could threaten human health. 

Kim Orth

Benjamin Tu

Wilfred van der Donk

Orth will receive $7 million over three years to work with a team of four assistant professors to identify fast-evolving virulence factors from clinically relevant pathogens. Tu and his team will receive $9.5 million over three years to research natural products that could be used to fight emerging pathogens. van der Donk and his team will receive $9.5 million over three years to research the avian and human antibody response to emerging influenza viruses. 

is a professor of molecular biology and biochemistry at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center. Her lab focuses on the basic biochemical mechanisms that underlie bacterial infections with a focus on how bacteria such as Vibrio parahaemolyticus hijack and deregulate cellular signaling. Orth was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 2020. She is an ASBMB fellow and won the 2019 ASBMB-Merck Award and the society’s 2012 Young Investigator Award. 

is a professor of biochemistry at UT Southwestern. His lab investigates how cellular processes such as cell growth and division, transcription, translation, mitochondrial homeostasis and autophagy coordinate the metabolic state of the cell. He was recently awarded the Edith and Peter O’Donnell Award by the Texas Academy of Medicine, Engineering Science & Technology. Tu is a co-chair of the 2024 ASBMB annual meeting, Discover BMB, to be held in San Antonio.

is a professor of chemistry at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. His lab uses synthetic organic chemistry and molecular biology to study enzymatic transformations with implications for the environment and pharmaceuticals. van der Donk was recently elected to the National Academy of Sciences. He served as a co-chair of the 2018 ASBMB annual meeting. 

HHMI is committing $100 million to this initiative to support basic research targeted at preparedness for emerging pathogens. 

“With this program, we hope to gain some of the knowledge and tools we need to get a scientific head start on future epidemics.” HHMI Vice President and Chief Scientific Officer Leslie Vosshall said in a .
