Ade Adebiyi, PhD

Dr. Adebiyi received his BS and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Lagos, Nigeria, and the National University of Singapore, respectively. Current research in Dr. Adebiyi's lab focuses on renal and vascular physiology and pathophysiology in infants and adults. His team utilizes an integrative approach, including techniques drawn from molecular, biochemical, electrophysiology, imaging, isolated tissue, and whole animal methodologies to investigate the function and control of ion channels, regulatory proteins, and G protein-coupled receptors in vascular and kidney cells. Dr. Adebiyi's lab is well equipped to study vascular and kidney pathophysiology using small and large animal models of disease, including hypertension, acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, diabetic kidney disease, and sickle cell vasculopathy.

Over the last ten years, Dr. Adebiyi has secured millions of dollars in funding from the National Institutes of Health and the American Heart Association (AHA). He has also received numerous meritorious awards, including the Research Recognition Award from the American Physiological Society's Renal Section. Dr. Adebiyi has published over 45 peer-reviewed research papers in prestigious journals and served as a grant reviewer for several national and international agencies, including the NIH, AHA, Czech Science Foundation, Netherlands Organization for Health Research and Development, and Medical Research Council, United Kingdom.
