    Alexander (Alex) Gupta, MD is a general surgery resident in the University of California, San Francisco Department of Surgery. He completed his undergraduate training at Southern Methodist University studying Electrical Engineering with a specialization in Biomedical Engineering. He attended medical school at the University of Texas Medical Branch. He is currently in his chief year of residency and is an administrative chief resident.

    His clinical interests include abdominal organ transplantation. After he graduates residency, he will be staying at UCSF for abdominal transplant surgery fellowship. His research interests are based in mechanisms of immune tolerance. He continues to work with Dr. James Gardner, a UCSF transplant surgeon and basic immunologist, studying the fundamental biology of extrathymic Aire-expressing cells as they relate to peripheral tolerance induction.

    Altmetrics Details PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication.
