Research Interests:

Acute kidney injury is a frequent clinical entity with an unacceptably high mortality, an increasing incidence and an unacceptably high mortality.  The laboratory studies the pathophysiology of acute injury to the kidney, particularly inflammation and apoptotic cell death.  Since the cause of death in patients with acute renal failure is usually related to dysfunction of other organ systems, we investigate the mechanisms of distant organ inflammation and dysfunction after renal injury.

Clinical Interests:

• Acute kidney injury/acute renal failure
• Biomarkers of renal injury
• Hypertension
