Description: C. Michael Crowder, the Seymour and Rose T. Brown Professor in the Department of Anesthesiology at the Washington University School of Medicine, is both a clinical anesthesiologist and an experimental geneticist who uses the nematode C. elegans to investigate questions of importance to neurobiology. One focus of the Crowder lab, which is the subject of his lecture in the Neuroscience Series, is the genetic basis for the capacity of C. elegans to survive bouts of hypoxia. This work, which has obvious clinical relevance, has uncovered important connections between protein homeostasis and the ability of organisms to deal with hypoxic insults.
