Our laboratory focuses on understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying lipid metabolism and human diseases. Our laboratory utilizes state-of-the-art technologies and animal models to elucidate how lipid metabolism is regulated in physiology, and how dysregulation of metabolism contributes to disease conditions, including obesity, diabetes, and cancer. Our ultimate goal is to investigate whether manipulating metabolism could be used as a therapeutic strategy for human diseases
