The Ed Reznik Lab

Ed Reznik, PhD

The mission of my research program is to address basic and clinical questions at the intersection of cancer metabolism, mitochondrial genetics, and cancer genomics, with a focus on translational applications in kidney cancer. Our research focuses on developing cutting-edge informatic and modeling approaches to address a single overarching question: how genotype and the tumor microenvironment cooperatively shape metabolic phenotypes.
