Our work focuses on identification of endophenotypes in pulmonary vascular disease, understanding genetic risk for pulmonary vascular disease and right heart failure, novel metabolomic insights into pulmonary hypertension and right heart failure and blood-based “omic” predictors of treatment responses in pulmonary vascular disease. We use several tools to test our hypotheses including VUMC’s Synthetic Derivative, large publicly-available datasets, and novel cohorts with rich clinical, genomic, transcriptomic, metabolomic and proteomic data.We are looking for researchers with experience in bioinformatics, data analysis and working knowledge of molecular and cellular biology to drive our research program in precision medicine, with a specific focus on our big data cohorts.

Research in the lab focuses on mechanisms by which the incretin hormone Glucagon-like peptide-1 (Glp1) and Glp1 receptor (Glp1r) agonists target the central nervous system to regulate caloric intake, feeding behavior, and body weight. We approach this using state-of-the-art techniques at the intersection between whole-body physiology, metabolism, and neuroscience in mouse models. Techniques to which you will be exposed include metabolic phenotyping, DREADD/optogenetics, fiber photometry, behavioral analyses. Current projects include: 1. Investigation of molecular mechanisms in the hypothalamus targeted by Glp1r agonists to reduce food intake/body weight. 2. Interrogating how Glp1r agonists and Fibroblast Growth Factor-21 (FGF21) regulate carbohydrate consumption. 3. Investigating the role of Glp1 producing neurons in the brainstem in the regulation of feeding behavior in response to metabolic and psychogenic stressors.
