Russell Vance, CEND investigator and assistant professor in Molecular and Cell Biology, was granted the 2009 Investigator in the Pathogenesis of Infectious Disease award from the Burroughs Wellcome Fund. The award honors Vance's studies of the innate immune system's cytosolic immunosurveillance pathways, which are involved in sensing bacterial pathogens.
Dan Portnoy, CEND Associate Director, and two other Center researchers have been awarded more than $6 million in grants from the NIH, as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. The research will focus on host defenses against intracellular pathogens, and the basic mechanics of the innate immune response.
