Research

The Membrane Transport Physiology Laboratory aims to understand structure, function, and cellular organization of transporter and channel proteins. These important proteins underpin fundamental processes that govern practically all critical life functions.

Diverse cell physiological, protein biochemical and molecular biological methods are employed in the Laboratory's research. We directly benefit from state-of-the-art Core facilities offered by the Department of Anatomy and Physiology and the Kansas State University College of Veterinary Medicine. The Laboratory also enjoys excellent resources housed throughout the Colleges comprising Kansas State University.

We are always looking to engage motivated and qualified students in our research projects. Learn about our work by visiting the pages and links on this site often.
