Jasna Marjanovic Associate Professor, Pharmacology Pharmaceutical and Administrative Sciences Jasna.Marjanovic@uhsp.edu 314.446.8491 Education Postdoctoral training in Hematology, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, Missouri Doctor of Philosophy in Pharmacology, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, Illinois Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy, University of Belgrade, Belgrade, Serbia Specialty Pharmacology, molecular mechanisms of platelet signaling, inositol signaling Current Research My research is in the field of hemostasis and thrombosis. In particular, I am interested in molecular mechanisms and molecular pharmacology of platelet functions. Blood platelets play critical roles in the development and course of thrombotic diseases. My current project is invesitgating the role of phosphatidylinositol (3,4) bisphosphate in platelet functions. These studies are conducted using a variety of approaches including: functional responses of blood platelets, platelet biochemistry and cell biology, in vivo studies employing transgenic animal models. Current Courses, Activities, and Scholarly Interest I teach pharmacology topics in Principles of drug action course and accross the integrated pharmacotherapy (IP) course sequence. My scholarly interest for teaching activities is incorporation of scientific principles in integrated patient care discussions throughout the IP courses.
