Overview
Investigation in the regulation of carbohydrate
and fat
metabolism using stables isotope technology. |

Henri
Brunengraber, MD PhD
Research
Focus: Regulation
of carbohydrate and fat metabolism
with stable isotopes.
Paul
Ernsberger, PhD
Research
Focus: Nutrition
and cardiovascular
diseases, nutrient-drug
interactions, metabolic
pharmacology, genetic
obesity and lipidds
in cell signaling.
Janos
Kerner, PhD
Research
Focus: Functions
of carnitine acyltransferases
and acylcarnitines
in intermediary metabolism
and the investigation
of the regulation of
mitochondrial malonyl-CoA
sensitive carnitine
palmitoyltransferase
(CPT-I).
John
Kirwan, PhD
Research
Focus: Physiological
and cellular mechanisms
by which exercise and
nutrition can improve
metabolic control (insulin
resistance, obesity
and type 2 diabetes)
as well as body composition
in older men and women.
Steve
Previs, PhD
Research
Focus: Application
of stable isotopes
for measuring carbohydrate,
fat, and protein metabolism.
Kou-Yi
Tserng, PhD
Research
Focus: Elucidation
of inborn errors of
metabolism resulting
from defects in fatty
acid enzymes and fatty
acid metabolism in
order to facilitate
the development of
nutritional intervention
or drug therapy to
affected patients.
