The Biology Seminar Series presents Dr. John Goss, a post doctoral research associate at Yale University where he studies molecular and cellular biology. He will present "Spatial and Temporal Regulation of Exocytosis by Molecular Tethering Complexes" as well as talk about his experiences after graduating from Rhodes in 2001.

There will be a reception in the Biology Library at 4 p.m. followed by the lecture at 4:15 p.m. in Frazier Jelke B. The host is Dr. Mary Miller of the Department of Biology.

While at Rhodes, Goss worked for two years at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital testing a variety of pharmaceutical treatments for their ability to counteract the side effect of a popular anti-cancer drug, Cisplatin. His work was published in Rhodes' Journal of Biological Sciences, and Goss also received Rhodes' Award for Outstanding Research in Biology.

At Yale in 2008, he was named a Biological Sciences Prize Teaching Fellow for his excellence in teaching.
