John J . O ' Shea , and Eric

Ingestion of opsonized foreign particles by phagocytic cells is a critical event in host defense against invading microorganisms, and factors that influence the rate and extent of phagocytosis are of particular interest. Fibronectin, a molecule found both in plasma and as a component of extracellular matrix, binds to phagocytic cells and enhances opsonin-mediated phagocytosis by monocytes, macr...

Drs . John Robert Warren and Eric Grodsky Policy : A Scholarly Exchange Between

Organocatalysis Eric

T he field of asymmetric catalysis is dedicated to the development of efficient catalytic methods for the construction of chiral molecules and has been dominated by the use of organometallics and enzymes for most of its history. However, in the past decade, the concept of organocatalysis has emerged as a discrete strategy for addressing modern day challenges in chemistry. It has become widely a...
