Our mission

Our research team aims to define how activation of molecular cell death and stress pathways within the vasculature impacts immune and fibrogenic responses leading to renal dysfunction. Our research program builds on a multi-facetted translational strategy that spans cell and molecular biology, animal models and studies in human renal transplant patients.
