Robert J. Lefkowitz, MD, PhD
2026 Victor J. Dzau Lecture Seminar Series

Please join us for a lecture by 2016 Nobel Laureate Dr. Robert J. Lefkowitz, the Chancellor's Distinguished Professor of Medicine and Professor of Biochemistry at Duke University.

Lefkowitz studies receptor biology and signal transduction. He is best known for his detailed characterizations of the sequence, structure, and function of the β-adrenergic and related receptors, and for the discovery and characterization of the two families of proteins that regulate them-the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) kinases and β-arrestins.

His talk, "G-protein Coupled Receptors," is part of the 2026 Victor J. Dzau Lecture Seminar Series and is sponsored by The Mandel Center for Hypertension and Atherosclerosis.
