Dario R. Alessi - Vice Chair, Europe Dario Alessi was born in France, went to school in Brussels and studied for a BSc and PhD in Biochemistry at the University of Birmingham with Ian Trayer and with David Trentham at the National Institute of Medical Research, Mill Hill, London. Between 1991 and 1996 Dario performed postdoctoral research in Professor Sir Philip Cohen's laboratory in the MRC Protein Phosphorylation Unit at the University of Dundee, where he became interested a class of enzyme termed kinases that are regulated by insulin and growth factors. In 1997, Dario was appointed as a principal investigator at the MRC Protein Phosphorylation Unit, where he has worked ever since on the molecular mechanism of how insulin, growth factors, kinases and other signalling molecules exert their physiological effects and on how to exploit these observations to develop novel treatments for disease. Dario was elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society in 2008.
