CIT can broadcast your seminar, conference or meeting live to a world-wide
audience over the Internet as a real-time streaming video. The event can
be recorded and made available for viewers to watch at their convenience
as an on-demand video or a downloadable podcast. CIT can also broadcast
NIH-only or HHS-only content.
The NCI's Office of Cancer Complementary and Alternative Medicine (OCCAM) invites you to view its monthly lecture series. The featured guest for June is Dr. Dennis Lubahn, Professor, Biochemistry and Child Health, University of Missouri-Columbia. Dr. Lubahn is also the Director of the Missouri University Center for Phytonutrient and Phytochemical studies. The title of the lecture is "Phytoestrogens, Hedgehog signaling, ER-alphaKO and ER-betaKO mice, and Prostate cancer: Good and bad ERs."
Dr. Lubahn received his Ph.D in Biochemistry from Duke University, Durham, North Carolina. He completed his post-doctoral fellowship at University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.
Dr. Lubahn's long term research interests involve the understanding of the mechanism of action of the sex steroids and their receptors, in particular the estrogen receptors. His laboratory research goals use estrogen receptor-alpha and estrogen receptor-beta minus mice to look for new estrogen response pathways (i.e. novel estrogen receptors) and to find novel functional roles for the classic estrogen receptor. Other major interests in his laboratory are: 1) The trinucleotide repeat genetic diseases, and 2) The imprinting signals of endocrine disrupters, such as the environmental estrogens, especially those potentially acting via DNA-methylation signaling pathways. Dr. Lubahn was a Pew Scholar in Biomedical Sciences (1989-92). He has served on NIH study sections and he is grantee of the National Cancer Institute (NCI).
