About the Author
Malgorzata Kloc: Prior to completing her postdoctoral training in Canada, Dr. Kloc was a tenured Associate Professor in the Department of Zoology at the University of Warsaw, Poland. She also served as a Research Associate in the Department of Biology at Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada. While completing her postdoctoral training, Dr. Kloc earned the AHFMR Research Award from the University of Calgary and the MRC Biotechnology Training Award from Dalhousie University. She joined the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center as a Research Scientist in the Department of Molecular Genetics in 1987, and became an Associate Professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology there in 2006. Dr. Kloc joined the Houston Methodist Research Institute in 2008. Currently, Dr. Kloc is the Weill Cornell Professor of Cell and Molecular Biology at The Houston Methodist Hospital and the Adjunct Professor at Department of Genetics, University of Texas, MD Anderson Cancer Center.
Ahmed Uosef finished his medical degree (MD) at the Ain Shams University Faculty of Medicine in Egypt in 2016. Since 2016 he participated in the clinical rotations at the Houston Methodist Hospital Surgical Liver ICU, gastroenterology at Baylor College of Medicine, St. Luke's Center, Houston, TX, Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery at Texas Heart Institute, St. Luke's Medical Center, Houston, TX. Presently he is a postdoctoral fellow at the Houston Methodist Hospital and Houston Methodist Academic Institute, Houston, TX, USA. During his postdoctoral work he has been involved in the basic and translation research on the role of macrophages in the development of chronic rejection of transplanted organs. His interests focus on the molecular and organellar aspects, and the involvement of the actin cytoskeleton and RhoA pathway in shaping macrophage response to the immune challenges.
