Prof. Krzysztof Palczewski awarded by the American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics

ICTER Co-founder Prof. Krzysztof Palczewski is the 2022 laureate of the prestigious Goodman and Gilman Award in Receptor Pharmacology in recognition of his innovative and pathfinding studies on mechanisms of activation of G protein-coupled receptors that have advanced understanding of receptor structure, signaling mechanism, defects that lead to disease, and treatments that preserve vision.

The Louis S. Goodman and Alfred Gilman Award in Receptor Pharmacology was established in 1980 in the US, to recognize and stimulate outstanding research in pharmacology of biological receptors. Such research might provide a better understanding of the mechanisms of biological processes and potentially provide the basis for the discovery of drugs useful in the treatment of diseases.
