Faculty Research

Rita Cantor Ph.D.
Mathematical modeling of human disease traits.

Stephen Cederbaum M.D.
Identification, cloning, regulation and evolution of the two arginases, AI and AII, in man and experimental animals. The goal is to understand the basic biology and pathology of arginine metabolism and then find a treatment for arginase AI deficiency.
