McCormick. This lectureship honors individuals who have made outstanding contributions in biochemistry and molecular biology. I would like to cordially invite you attend this important event to be held Monday, May 2, 2011, 4-5 pm, Woodruff Health Sciences Building Auditorium. The lecture and the reception following the lecture are free and open to the public.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe 4th Annual McCormick Lecture will be given by Dr. Venkatraman Ramakrishnan. Dr. Ramakrishnan received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2009 along with Thomas A. Steitz and Ada E. Yonath \u0022for studies of the structure and function of the ribosome\u0022. Dr. Ramakrishnan is a Group Leader at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge. He has had a longstanding interest in ribosome structure and function. His work has led to insights into how the ribosome \u0022reads\u0022 the genetic code and into various aspects of antibiotic function. Dr. Ramakrishnan\u0027s lecture will focus on the 30S subunit and subsequently on the entire 70S ribosome and on how the ribosome facilitates the accurate translation of the genetic code.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EDonald B.
