DescriptionNobel Laureate and Duke University School of Medicine professor Dr. Peter Agre announced this morning that he will be taking steps necessary to evaluate a possible run for the Senate from Minnesota. As a result, he will take a leave of absence from the positions of Vice Chancellor for Science and Technology and James B. Duke Professor of Cell Biology at the Duke University Medical Center later this summer.

Agre's family has lived in Minnesota for four generations, he was born and raised there, and he graduated from Augsburg College in Minneapolis. Agre came to the Duke School of Medicine in 2005 after spending more than 25 years at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
