Neil Nathanson is a professor in the Department of Pharmacology at the University of Washington. His research focuses on the mechanisms involved in signaling through muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and cytokine receptors, such as leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF). His laboratory studies the roles of these signaling pathways in normal physiological processes as well as in disease states affecting the cardiovascular and nervous systems. Nathanson's research has identified pathways that are crucial for the initiation of epileptic seizures and has explored how genetic defects can lead to dysfunction within the autonomic nervous system. He is affiliated with the UW Graduate Programs in Neuroscience and Molecular Cellular Biology. Over the years, he has received several prestigious awards, including the Boehringer Ingelheim Research Award and the FASEB/Wellcome Visiting Professorship in Basic Medical Sciences, recognizing his contributions to the field of pharmacology and neuroscience.
