AdhesionGPCRs

Autorenportrait

Simon Yona, PhD, graduated from Kings College, University London with a BSc in Physiology and a MSc in Pharmacology, before completing a PhD with Prof. R.J. Flower FRS and Prof. M. Perretti, at St. Bartholomews Hospital, University of London. Following his doctorate Simon took up a Postdoctoral Research position with Prof. S. Gordon FRS, at the Sir William Dunn School of Pathology, University of Oxford, where he investigated the roles and functions of the leukocyte restricted adhesionGPCRs. Dr. Yona moved from Oxford to join the group of Prof. S. Jung, at the Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot, when he was awarded a Federation of European Biochemical Societies, International Fellowship. Currently he is investigating the developmental profile of mononuclear phagocytes in a number of pathologies. Martin Stacey, DPhil (Oxon), graduated from Hertford College, University of Oxford with an MBiochem before completing a DPhil in the laboratory of Prof. S. Gordon FRS. He continued working at the Sir William Dunn School of Pathology for a number of years where he cloned and characterized leukocyte adhesionGPCRs and demonstrated the existence of their cell surface ligands. More recently, Dr. Stacey has been appointed as a Lecturer of Immunology, at the University of Leeds where his laboratory focuses on adhesionGPCRs and role of myeloid cells in human disease.
