BIO
Fields of Interest: G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling and intracellular modulators of that signaling. GPCRs are the targets of over 30% of current drugs and we are discovering novel ways to control their function.

RESEARCH LABORATORY
We are an interdisciplinary laboratory in the Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology at Michigan State University. We have a wide range of projects focused on understanding the molecular mechanisms of GPCR (G-Protein Coupled Receptor) signaling and their downstream effectors. We are also very interested in discovering new compounds to interrupt this pathway and perhaps lead to new therapeutics in numerous diseases such as cardiovascular disorders, cancer, scleroderma and epilepsy.Additional information on The Neubig Lab web site
