DNA Sequence of Events

The use of genetic information to inform patient care, from cancer to neurological disorders, has personalized medicine for individual patients like never before. But more is still to come, according to Elizabeth M. McNally, MD, PhD, new director of Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine’s Center for Genetic Medicine.

McNally to Lead Center for Genetic Medicine

Elizabeth McNally, MD, PhD, has been named the Elizabeth J. Ward Chair and director of the Center for Genetic Medicine.

Scientific Advances
Jun 13, 2014

Enzymes Shown to Protect Mitochondrial DNA from Stress

David Kamp, MD, completed his residency and fellowship at Northwestern, where he now studies a range of lung disorders as well as cellular apoptosis, a process of programmed cell death.

Disease Discoveries
Jun 6, 2014

Toxicity Finding Promotes Cautious Approach for Drug Class

Recently published research in Human Molecular Genetics shows that removing too much of the enzyme HDAC3 has a toxic effect on the nervous system. The expression of this enzyme is inhibited by drugs being studied as potential treatment options for cancer and neurodegeneration
