Research Interest
Where the cell boundary meets physiology.................... Physiological context: Insulin resistance, Cellular context: Insulin-responsive cells [metabolic axis] eg. adipocytes...... The important question: How a perturbed insulin-mediated anabolic system alters behavior and architecture of relevant receptors at the membrane and how a cell that is poised to respond to physiological insults "adapts" (?) at the level of plasma membrane
