Overview

Gabriel Loeb, MD, PhD is a physician-scientist investigating the mechanisms underlying kidney disease. His research focuses on two major areas: 1) using human common genetic variation to identify cellular and molecular drivers of chronic kidney disease and 2) identifying the molecular mediators of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease. Findings from both projects demonstrate the central role of tubule epithelial cells in kidney disease pathogenesis. Gabriel’s research program integrates human genetics, novel kidney disease models, and single cell genomics to reveal essential regulators of tubule epithelial cell health and enable new therapies for people suffering from kidney disease.

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. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
