from Rhodes College (USA) in 1985 and
his Ph. D. from Vanderbilt University
School of Medicine, Department of Cell
Biology in 1992. The following year, he
was made a Howard Hughes Medical Institute

to take a fellowship in the Laboratory
of Developmental Biology at the National
Institute for Medical Research (UK). He
remained at the NIMR until 1998, when
he was appointed Team Leader of the Section

cell-to-cell signalling events that govern
early pattern formation in the vertebrate
embryo. |
