Drs. Kalman and Sherman occupy
a laboratory facility in the newly constructed Whitehead Research
Building at Emory University in Atlanta. Laboratory space of approximately
3400
square feet in an open laboratory format is shared with 3 other investigators
in the Pathology Department (Drs. Zimring (immunobiology of T cells),
Weiss (E. coli genetics), and Ye (GTPase signalling). A Mass Spectroscopy
core facility is located across the street in the Winship Cancer
Center. Our laboratory is configured for cell biology, molecular
biology and
biochemical experiments. We have two wide field deconvolution microscopes
(Intelligent imaging Innovations) based on a Zeiss 200M platform.
Our laboratory is located across the hall from the Epithelial Pathobiology
Unit (formerly headed by Jim Madara), comprising several independent
investigators interested in pathbiology of epithelial cells. The
group
includes Drs. Parkos (neutrophil signalling), Nusrat (tight junction
signalling), Neish (Salmonella and inflamation),and Gewertz (mucosal
immunity).
