Jane B.Neckers
Staff Scientist
Developmental Therapeutics Branch
Facility Head, Translational Pharmacodynamics Research Group

Jane Trepel came to the NCI from the Laboratory of Preclinical Pharmacology, National Institute of Mental Health, where she identified posttranslational modification of glycoprotein hormones by ADP-ribosylation. Since then she has held positions of increasing responsibility in the former Clinical Pharmacology Branch and Medicine Branch. She is the author of five issued and pending patents in new drug development and is the recipient of a Federal Technology Transfer Award. Her interests are focused on the new therapeutic opportunities provided by molecular dissection of aberrant tumor cell signaling pathways.
