Myc is a pleiotropic transcription factor fundamental for many cellular processes. It is an infamous and highly-studied oncogene, with around 10,000 articles published in the last decade. The majority of these link it to cancer. The focus on Myc as a hot target in cancer has led to immense efforts – from academia through to pharmaceutical companies – being directed towards finding a Myc inhibitor. Not surprisingly, given its fundamental nature in many physiological processes, Myc has also been linked to a large variety of pathologies other than cancer. The growing efforts to develop Myc inhibitors as cancer therapies will have important implications for the treatment of these diseases to...
From Blackadder to A Bit of Fry and Laurie, Jeeves and Wooster to House, Hugh Laurie has entertained millions in a career spanning three decades. Born in Oxford, Hugh followed in his father's footsteps, not as a doctor but as a rower, rowing for Cambridge University. But unlike his father he never made it to the Olympics and instead was forced, due to illness, to swap the oars for the stage; joining Cambridge Footlights. It was there that Hugh began his career in comedy and forged a hilarious partnership with fellow scholar Stephen Fry. Enjoying success on the small screen Hugh went on to star in film adaptations of Sense and Sensibility , 101 Dalmatians, Monsters v Aliens and the three Stuart Little movies. But it is the character of Doctor Gregory House, in the US TV drama House, which has brought Hugh Laurie global fame. Winning 2 Golden Globes for the role and receiving a prestigious Emmy nomination in 2005, Hugh continues to receive critical acclaim for his performances in the show. With worldwide stardom and an OBE to his name, Hugh Laurie is undoubtedly one of Britain's best-loved actors.
