Maria Irene Kontaridis
Harvard/Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Assistant Professor of Medicine
Understanding the signaling pathways that mediate cardiac developmental processes may reveal important clues into the cellular and molecular pathogenesis of heart
disease. Specifically, we want to understand how protein-tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) relate to cardiac development and disease. Our lab's research efforts focus on
developmental biology, in vivo analysis of in mouse systems, including disease models, and cardiac biology and stem cell research using primary cultures. Currently,
we are studying mouse models in which we can assess the molecular pathogenesis of the cardiac defects associated with Noonan (NS) and LEOPARD (LS) Syndromes,
pediatric disorders both attributed primarily to mutations in Shp2, the SH2 domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase

Malvina Papanastasiou
Northeastern University, Post-doctoral fellow
Use of tandem mass spectrometry to sequence ligand-protein covalent complexes. Our main goal is the mapping of the binding pockets of the two cannabinoid
receptors. Another major reserach area is the quantitation of the endocannabinoid metabolome by LC/MS/MS. The focus is to determine which components of the
endocannabinoid metabolome are affected by different drug, diet or disease states

I have broad interests in the genetics of endocrine diseases, and especially in metabolism and reproduction. I am particularly interested in the role of cellular stress
response pathways in the homeostasis of the endocrine system
