Author Information
Paul M. Nurse is a prominent researcher affiliated with the Cell Cycle Laboratory at The Francis Crick Institute in London, UK, and the Laboratory of Yeast Genetics and Cell Biology at Rockefeller University in New York, NY, USA. His work primarily focuses on the genetic and molecular mechanisms regulating the cell cycle, particularly in fission yeast. Nurse's contributions to the field have been recognized through numerous high-impact publications and significant citation metrics.
Research Contributions
Paul M. Nurse has made significant contributions to our understanding of cell cycle regulation, particularly using the model organism fission yeast. His research delves into the quantitative and spatial analysis of cell cycle regulators, the identification of mutants affecting cell size at mitosis onset, and the core control principles of the eukaryotic cell cycle. His recent studies have also explored the TOR-dependent phosphoproteome and its regulation of cellular protein synthesis, as well as the identification of novel microtubule inhibitors with potential applications in cancer treatment. Nurse's work has broad implications for cancer biology, cell biology, and therapeutic development.
Aliases
