Linda A Barlow · Denver, Colorado
Dr. Linda Barlow's lab focuses on understanding how chemotherapy affects taste perception, especially regarding the cancer treatment drugs used for kidney cancer. The research explores how these drugs disrupt the regeneration of taste bud cells, particularly those responsible for sweet taste. The ultimate goal is to find ways to mitigate taste dysfunction in cancer patients, improving their quality of life during treatment.
