C. David Allis

Premios

1. 2007

   Premio Internacional Canadá Gairdner

   Biología

   For his transforming studies demonstrating the link between chromatin structure and gene transcription and elucidating the mechanisms by which a variety of post-translational modifications of histones are involved in gene expression and genome maintenance and stability.

2. 2014

   Premio Japón — Ciencias de la vida

   Biología

   for the discovery of histone modifications as fundamental regulators of gene expression.

3. 2015

   Premio Breakthrough — Ciencias de la vida

   Biología

   for the discovery of covalent modifications of histone proteins and their critical roles in the regulation of gene expression and chromatin organization, advancing the understanding of diseases ranging from birth defects to cancer.

4. 2018

   Premio Lasker — Premio Albert Lasker de Investigación Médica Básica

   Biología

   For discoveries elucidating how gene expression is influenced by chemical modification of histones—the proteins that package DNA within chromosomes.
