Each week, my students and I discussed a recently published research paperinsomeareaofsignaling,arguedabouttheappropriatenessofthemethodol- ogy used in the research, the design of the experiments, and whether the conclu- sions drawn were supported by the results presented. Finally, each student was askedtolistwhatwasgoodandwhatwasdeficientinthepaperandwhethershe/he would have accepted or rejected it had she/he reviewed it for publication. For a good number ofrecentpapers, aconsistent complaint ofthe students was that the backgroundtotheresearchwasnotadequatelydescribed.Itcanofcoursebeargued that students should research the background. Either way, the need for a good source of background material in order to appreciate the research presented in a paperbecameapparenttomeandwastheinspirationfordevelopingthisbook. The goal inbringingthis book was toprovide students with a review ofrecent developmentsinspecificareasofcurrentinterestinsignaltransduction,sufficiently indepthtomakerecentresearchpublicationsaccessible. However,giventhewide range of research topics being investigated today in signaling, a choice had to be madetofocusonaselectfew.Thischoicewasmadenotonlykeepingthecurrent research interest in mind, but also with the anticipation that these areas will continuetobeofinterestoverthenextseveralyears.

Description:
This book was adapted from graduate courses on signal transduction taught by the editor, where the need for a good overview of recent developments on each of the topics being discussed became apparent. Given the wide range of research topics in signaling, a selection was made that not only reflects
