Rutkowski, Joseph Associate Professor

Positions

are interested both in how lymphatic functions are impacted by disease and in how manipulating lymphatic biology or lymphangiogenesis may prevent or reduce tissue pathologies. Our research approach incorporates a vast array of tools from protein analysis and lipidomics to tissue engineering and transgenic mouse model generation. Current projects are focused on the pathophysiology of chronic inflammatory diseases such as obesity, lymphedema, lipedema, hypertension, and kidney disease.
