Research information:

My field of research is called “Be Sweet to Babies” and focuses on reducing pain in babies and children. My studies include effectiveness and use of sugar water (sucrose) in sick and healthy babies and children. I am also involved in reviewing all other studies people have done in relation to sucrose and breastfeeding for pain management. In addition, I study how hospitals and community settings actually use recommended pain management strategies during needle procedures such as immunization and blood work, and how we can improve pain management for our youngest populations.

Research information:

Our lab is interested in understanding how human cells respond to extracellular cues to maintain and ensure their function and survival. One central focus is to study how the pancreatic beta cell converts feeding cues into signals leading to insulin production and secretion.

We use high-throughput functional screens to identify novel players involved in different cell-signaling pathways, including human pancreatic beta cell proliferation and those involved in the maintenance of mitochondria, critical subcellular organelles essential for cell function and survival. In addition to Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, our work impacts upon cancer and neurodegeneration.
