Research

  • We investigate new pathogenic mechanisms of diabetes complications. The main 

  • focus of our research is how diabetes affects hypoxia, Notch and other signaling pathways 
  • and how this contributes to the development of diabetes complications 
  • including diabetic nephropathy, diabetic foot ulcer, infection and diabetic 
  • heart disease. We use clinical samples together with animal and cellular 
  • models of diabetes as well as genetically-modified mice to conduct 
  • mechanistical, translational, and clinical research.
