Antony M. Carr. Director, Genome Damage and Stability Centre.
I studied for my BSc at Norwich University, graduating in Biological Sciences in 1981. I subsequently studied under Paul Nurse for my D. Phil. For which I was registered at the University of Sussex. The subject of my thesis was ?The Analysis and Function of the cdc2 Gene Region in Fission Yeast?. Over the following years I developed my interest in the checkpoint pathways that respond to DNA damage and replication delays while working on DNA repair at the MRC Cell Mutation Unit, Sussex University. My laboratory currently studies the genetics and biochemistry of these pathways in fission yeast. We are interested in the mechanisms by which checkpoints respond to DNA damage and how these pathways interact with aspects of DNA repair and replication. My laboratory is now part of the Centre for Genome Damage and Stability which is based at Sussex University and funded by the Medical Research Council.
