Biographical Sketch – Alejandro M.S. Mayer, Ph.D. (10/7/2014) Alejandro M.S. Mayer, Ph.D., is currently Professor of Pharmacology at the Chicago College of Osteopathic Medicine, Midwestern University. He received his Ph.D. in 1979 from the University of Buenos Aires, Argentina and from 1985-1988, he completed a three-year postdoctoral fellowship in marine pharmacology in the laboratory of Dr. Robert S. Jacobs at the University of California at Santa Barbara. From 1990-1993, he joined the faculty of the Physiology Department, Louisiana State University Medical Center in New Orleans, LA. Since 1993, has been a faculty member at the Department of Pharmacology, Chicago College of Osteopathic Medicine, Midwestern University, where he rose from Assistant to Full Professor of Pharmacology in 2000. Dr. Mayer teaches pharmacology to medical, pharmacy, dental and health sciences students and continues to be actively involved in research in both marine immunopharmacology and marine immunotoxicology of marine cyanobacterial LPS. He is the author of 70 peer-reviewed research papers, which include a series of 15 marine pharmaceutical preclinical pipeline reviews covering the period 1998-2011 which he has written in collaboration with Drs. Gustafson, Hamann, Berlinck, Rodriguez , Fusetani and Taglialatela-Scafati, and which systematically review marine pharmacological and pharmaceutical research. In 2010 he reviewed the global pharmaceutical pipeline with Dr. Glaser, Cuevas, Jacobs, Kem, Little, McIntosh, Newman, Potts and Shuster. The current marine clinical pipeline is available at http://marinepharmacology.midwestern.edu/clinPipeline.htm. Dr. Mayer has been awarded 2 patents and has been funded by the Department of Commerce, NOAA, Sea Grant College Program and NIH, and is a member of AAAS, ASPET, and the Society for Toxicology. He has served as guest editor of a special issue on marine toxins of the ejournal MARINE DRUGS and as of January 1, 2014 has become the Editor-in-Chief of the MARINE DRUGS journal that focuses on the development of marine drugs. This marine pharmacology web page is a service for both the general public and the research community at large interested in pharmaceutical research with marine chemicals.
