\n<\/TABLE>Howard Jacob, Ph.D., director of the human and molecular genetics center at the Medical College of Wisconsin, received the 2007 A. Ross McIntyre Award at UNMC on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Dr. Jacob was recognized for his work in genomics — particularly his describing of the entire sequence of genes in rat DNA, which allows for a better understanding of the specific genes that cause diseases, said Irving Zucker, Ph.D., Theodore F. Hubbard Professor of Cardiovascular Research and chairman of the UNMC Department of Cellular and Integrative Physiology.<\/p>\n

“This stands to be very significant because rat and human DNA are very similar,” said Dr. Zucker, who presented Dr. Jacob with the award. <\/p>\n

The McIntyre Award was established in 1972 in honor of Dr. A. Ross McIntyre, who served as chairman of the UNMC Department of Physiology and Pharmacology from 1935 to 1967.<\/p>\n

The award recognizes individuals who make original and innovative contributions in a scientific field related to medicine or medical education. <\/p>\n

Dr. Jacob joins a distinguished list of McIntyre Award Winners, including former U.S. Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan (1973), Pulitzer Prize winning author Robert Neil Butler, M.D. (1977), UNMC’s Joseph Gilmore, Ph.D. (1986), and Denham Harman, M.D., Ph.D. (1994). <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
