Harry W. Schroeder, Jr. (b. 1952), Professor, completed his undergraduate studies in Chemistry (B.S., 1974) at Texas A&M University (College Station, TX). He earned his M.D. (1981) and Ph.D. (1979) with Dr. Bert O'Malley at Baylor College of Medicine (Houston, TX). After completing an Internal Medicine residency at the University of Kentucky (Lexington, KY) in 1984, he trained in Clinical Genetics with Dr. Arno Motulsky at the University of Washington (Seattle, WA), and in molecular immunology with Dr. Roger Perlmutter at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (Seattle, WA). He was recruited to UAB in 1988 where he has continued to pursue interests in the genetics of diseases of immune function. Most recently, he spent a sabbatical year in the laboratory of Dr. Klaus Rajewsky at the Institute for Genetics of the University of Cologne (Cologne, Germany).
