Seldin and Giebisch's The Kidney

Dr. Robert J. Alpern has performed research in the area of epithelial physiology, focusing on the mechanisms and regulation of acid transport. He received his MD degree from the University of Chicago and then trained in internal medicine at Columbia Presbyterian. Following postdoctoral training in the Cardiovascular Research Institute at the University of California, San Francisco, Alpern joined the faculty at UCSF, then moved to the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School as Chief of Nephrology and later Dean of the Medical School. He then moved to Yale as the Dean of Yale School of Medicine and is now Ensign Professor of Medicine and Cellular and Molecular Physiology at Yale.Dr. Michael Caplan studies epithelial cell biology and physiology. His work focuses on the trafficking and regulation of renal ion transport proteins. His group also studies the signaling pathways involved in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. He received his MD and PhD degrees from Yale University, having pursued his dissertation work in the Department of Cell Biology under the guidance of Drs. James D. Jamieson and George E. Palade. He is currently C.N.H. Long Professor and Chair of Yale University School of Medicine’s Department of Cellular and Molecular Physiology. Dr. Orson W. Moe received his MD degree from the University of Toronto, where he also did his internal medicine residency and clinical nephrology fellowship. Dr. Orson Moe moved to the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center for research training in renal physiology. He is currently Professor of Internal Medicine and Physiology and member of the Nephrology Division at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas. He is also Director of the Charles and Jane Pak Center of Mineral Metabolism and Clinical Research and holds the Charles and Jane Pak Chair in Mineral Metabolism Research and the Donald Seldin Professorship in Clinical Investigation. Dr. Moe conducts both basic science and patient-oriented research on renal physiology and metabolism, and epithelial biology. Dr. Susan E. Quaggin, MD, FASN, is a graduate of the University of Toronto, where she completed her residency and served as Chief Medical Resident for the University’s St. Michael’s Hospital. She completed her nephrology fellowship at the University of Toronto and Yale University, where she also completed research and postdoctoral training. Dr. Quaggin also trained in the developmental biology program at the University of Toronto’s Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute. Dr. Quaggin now serves as Editor for Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension and The Kidney, and as an Editorial Board Member for JCI, Disease Models and Mechanisms, and Kidney International. Currently, Charles Horace Mayo Professor of Medicine at Northwestern University and a Finnish Distinguished Professor (2012–17). Dr. Quaggin has been the recipient of many awards and honors.
