Debra A. Kendall

Board of Trustees Distinguished Professor of Molecular and Cell Biology
Associate Dean, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences

Debra Kendall’s research focuses on cellular activities that take place at the cell membrane, an area of study that has grown rapidly in the past decade as scientists learn how information is transmitted from outside to inside the cell, knowledge that can determine how drugs and therapeutic treatments are designed. In one project, Kendall and her research group study the cannabinoid receptor, a membrane protein found in the cells of the human nervous system.
