Criollo en Harvard University of Medicine


Alguno de mis panas conoce a este dominicano ???, se llama Manuel Paniagua y esta en el Departamento de Research en Harvard University. Este es un ejemplo de que se puede, vamos a seguir comiendonos los libros o como dice mi amigo Alexander Sanchez" just cracking the hard book for USMLE".

Fragmento de Carta enviada a Remo

Hola Remo,
"Bueno aqui en la Harvard Institute of Medicine formo parte de un laboratorio que hace investigaciones cientificas. This is a very brief description of our work Remo, if you are still interested i can elaborate a bit more on the specifics of our experiments. I enjoy what i do very much. I am part of a very dynamic science organization that works hard for the well being of human kind. I am the youngest individual in my laboratory, the rest of the guys are already established academically (PhD's,MD's); i am like a sponge right now, taking in all their knowledge and storing it. Our lab consist of 5 people: 2 chinese, un Mexicano, un Americano (el boss), and, of course, me -Dominican. Aqui te mando una foto de todos nosotros en el laboratorio."

Very brief description of our work

To be more specific,the laboratory investigates the molecular mechanisms of signal pathways in certain cells and region of the human body. One specific protein that is known to form part of the signal transduction pathways in cells (this is well documented in the scientific literature) is the heterotrimeric G protein. This particular protein is very important within the cells because it is found coupled to transmembrane receptors (proteins embedded within the cellular membrane and interact with extracellular molecules). G proteins and receptors work together in order for the continuation of the signal within the target cell, which most of the time results in cellular/tissue/organ response. So we are studying G proteins, and other G protein interacting molecules with the hope of better understanding the molecular events that occur. This information will help us understand specific pathophysiological conditions affecting the human body, and hopefully determine a treatment or cure for them.
