Faculty in this Research Group

Research Interests
Nicholas A. Delamere, PhD

I study lens physiology, the physiology of aqueous humor dynamics and the regulation of Na,K-ATPase activity by feedback mechanisms that utilize mechanosensitive TRPV and piezo ion channels.

Jose F. Ek Vitorin, PhD

I would like to understand how connexin channels are regulated and interact with other channels and non-channel proteins to coordinate cellular functions.

Mingyu Liang, MB, PhD

Current projects include studies of genetic and epigenetic mechanisms of blood pressure regulation, hypertensive end organ damage, and kidney disease and biomarkers of coronary artery disease.

Yong Liu, PhD

My research focuses on using techniques of molecular biology, cellular biology, and bioinformatics to systematically study complex interactions of the biological system.

Pengyuan Liu, PhD

Dr. Pengyuan Liu's research interests are in bioinformatics and genomics of complex diseases.

Mohammad Shahidullah, PhD 

Ion Transport functions and signaling mechanisms of ocular ciliary epithelium and lens epithelium.
