Robert V Farese, M.D.
Professor In Residence
Research Interests:
Cell Biology of Energy Metabolism
Summary:
Dr. Farese is an expert on the biology of obesity. His work over the past 15 years has focused on energy and fat metabolism. Using a variety of organisms, such as yeast and mice, his group identified and determined the functions of many of the enzymes of fat synthesis. They identified many of the genes that regulate fat storage in cells. His work has broad implications for cell biology, the understanding of complex diseases such as type 2 diabetes, and the development of biofuels.
Dr. Farese recently shifted a part of his laboratory's interest to studying neurobiology and neurodegenerative disease, particularly frontotemporal dementia (FTD). He is currently co-director of a new effort, the Consortium for FTD Research (CFR) to study the biology of FTD and develop cures.
