Biographical Narrative:
Dr. Yosypiv received his M.D. in Pediatrics from the Medical University of Lviv, Ukraine in 1984. He was a research fellow with Dr. Samir El-Dahr at Tulane in 1992-1996 and was then a Research Instructor at Tulane Pediatrics. In 1997-2000 he completed Residency training in Pediatrics and is currently a Fellow in Pediatric Nephrology at Tulane. The primary theme of Dr. Yosypiv's research is elucidation of the role of the kallikrein-kinin and renin-angiotensin systems in kidney developmental growth and hypertension. Ongoing studies are being conducted on the cross-talk of the above systems in renal development.

Biographical Narrative:
Dr. You received his M.D. from the West China University of Medical Sciences in 1989. He conducted his doctoral studies on the chemotherapy of gynecologic cancer under the tutelage of Dr. Zeyi Cao at the same institution, obtaining his Ph.D. in 1994. From 1994 to 1998, Dr. You was a postdoctoral fellow and then a faculty member at the Beijing Medical University, working on the molecular biology of gynecologic cancer. In 1998, Dr. You joined the University of Freiburg, Freiburg, Germany, as a research scientist to investigate adenovirus-mediated cancer gene therapy. In 2000, he moved to the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, as a research fellow focusing on molecular signaling and apoptosis in cancer. In 2003, Dr. You joined the faculty of the University of California Davis as an adjunct instructor and then an adjunct assistant professor in the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, working on the interleukin-17 receptor-like molecule (IL-17RL or IL-17RC) in prostate cancer. In 2008, Dr. You joined the faculty of the Tulane University Health Sciences Center as an assistant professor in the Department of Structural and Cellular Biology. Dr. You's current research focuses on the roles of the interleukin-17 family (cytokines and their receptors, particularly IL-17RC) and their molecular signaling pathways in prostate cancer oncogenesis and progression, and the development of androgen-independence. He is also initiating research programs on inflammation and stem cells in prostate cancer. The long-term goals of his research are to provide new methods in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer.
