Molecular Biology

Prof. George Brownlee, a pioneer in the field of Molecular Biology, which he brought to the Dunn School in the early 1980’s, first cloned and patented the production and clinical use of recombinant human blood clotting factor IX. As Head of the Chemical Pathology Unit, Prof. Brownlee trained and established a very strong group of scientists within the Dunn School, all still interested in transcriptional and translational control of gene expression.
