Wenhui Wang — Dr. Wenhui Wang's lab focuses on understanding how the body regulates potassium and sodium levels, particularly in the kidneys. The research investigates how specific channels in kidney cells respond to dietary changes in these electrolytes and how this affects overall health, especially in conditions like chronic kidney disease and heart failure. The lab aims to find new ways to treat issues related to abnormal potassium and sodium levels.
Sachin A Gupte — Dr. Sachin A. Gupte's research lab focuses on understanding how metabolic changes, particularly involving a protein called glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), can influence vascular diseases. By studying how different forms of G6PD might affect blood vessel cells, the lab aims to uncover new mechanisms that could lead to better treatments for conditions like heart disease and artery stiffness, which are significant health issues worldwide.
