Dr. GPCR Podcast

About this episode

Our guest in this episode of the Dr.GPCR podcast is Dr. John Streicher from the department of pharmacology at the University of Arizona. John started grad school in 1999 and spent some time figuring out what he was interested in. It turns out that it was signal transduction, and he worked on the signaling cascades involved in heart failure. His encounter and interest in signaling in the context of GPCRs during his postdoctoral training in Dr. Laura Bohn’s lab at Scripps Research Institute in Florida. Today, John and his team focus on understanding how signal transduction cascades downstream of the opioid receptors work, including the unique organization of chaperone protein Hsp90 modulation of opioid signaling in the brain versus the spinal cord.
