Research InterestsAlan R. Saltiel, PhD investigates the hormone insulin and its role in regulating cellular sugar levels. This work is now expanding into an investigation of how cells send and receive signals, which may lead to new treatments for diabetes, as well as new understandings of colon cancer, heart disease, and nerve growth.
