• Research Interests

  We are studying regulation of metabolism (obesity and diabetes) concentrating on the mechanisms that link G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) to hormone secretion. The research involves investigation of localization and function of GPCRs, imaging, biosensors and genetically modified mice. A new project studies the role of some novel GPCR pathways in cancerous cell death.
