We study molecular renal physiology, and mosquito-borne disease control.

AIMS AND SCOPES

Our laboratory uses concepts and methods of systems biology to investigate regulatory processes that govern physiological phenomena. The methods include LC-MS/MS-based protein mass spectrometry, RNA-seq, bioinformatics, confocal microscopy, biochemical as well as cell and molecular biological methods. Our current interests are 1) hormone vasopressin-regulated processes that mediate renal water excretion, and 2) transgenic strategies that stop mosquito-borne virus spread.
