Research Summary
Dr. Glembotski’s research focuses on discovering proteostasis-based therapeutics to treat heart disease, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases and metabolic diseases. This approach is the result of our years of focusing on mechanisms of heart disease. We develop gene- and small molecule-based therapeutics targeted toward enhancing proteome integrity. Our most recent research has expanded beyond heart disease to other pathologies caused by dysregulated proteostasis.
