Summary

  • I am a physician-scientist board-certified in Nephrology and Internal Medicine. I spend ~80% of my time engaged in basic research, studying epithelial ion transport using the Drosophila melanogaster renal tubule as a model system to study pathways of relevance to mammalian renal physiology. I spend 20% time attending on the nephrology and internal medicine inpatient services and in the nephrology clinic.
