Dr. Wasserman is the Director of the Mouse Metabolic Phenotyping Center, and Professor and Annie Mary Lyle Chair of Molecular Physiology and Biophysics at Vanderbilt University.
The Wasserman lab studies the role of physical exercise, insulin-stimulation and diet in metabolism. They use a variety of animal models, isotopic techniques and analytical methods that allow them to study metabolism from gene to the whole organism. The research is not only critical to a basic understanding of fuel metabolism but also has important implications to diabetes and heart disease.
