| Publisher Description: Building on the complementary information presented in Gas Sensing in Cells, this will be the first book to address the structurally independent but functionally intertwined molecular and cellular event that is gasotransmitter signalling. This book will be of interest to postgraduates and researchers in biochemistry, molecular biology and metallobiology. It will also be useful to pharmacologists and medicinal chemists investigating drugs that act by altering the production and signalling of gaseous mediators as well as toxicologists studying the toxic mechanisms of gasotransmitters in the environment. |
Contributor Bio(s): Wang, Rui: - Dr Rui Wang has been Vice-President of Research of Laurentian University since January of 2015. From 2004 to 2014, Dr Wang served as the Vice President of Research firstly, and then as Vice President of Research, Economic Development and Innovation at Lakehead University. Dr Wang came to Lakehead from the University of Saskatchewan, where he was a Professor of Physiology and leader of both the Cardiovascular Research Group and the Cardiovascular and Respiratory Network. Prior to that, Dr Wang was a Principal Investigator from 1995 to 2000 at the Mount Desert Island Biological Laboratory in Maine, USA, and an Assistant Professor at the Université de Montréal from 1993 to 1997. Dr Wang was trained in China as a medical doctor, and later received his PhD degree in 1990 from the University of Alberta. Dr Wang is an international leader in the study of the metabolism and physiological functions of a group of small molecules of gas, known as gasotransmitters |
