Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Renny S. Lan investigates the intersection of host physiology, microbiome, and disease, with a focus on metabolomics and mass spectrometry techniques. Their work includes studies on the gut microbiome's role in early life development, particularly in relation to maternal obesity and infant growth. Lan also studies the impact of exercise on xenometabolites in both lean and obese adults, and the influence of specific genetic mutations on disease progression, such as polycystic kidney disease in mice. Additionally, Lan's research explores the molecular mechanisms underlying bone mass regulation, involving osteoclast mitochondria and iron uptake. Their publications also delve into the optimization of mass spectrometric parameters for untargeted metabolomics and the critical roles of specific bacterial enzymes in pathogen virulence. Lan has published 58 papers with 940 citations and an h-index of 13, and collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Ping-Ching Hsu and Lindsay Pack.
