Chief, Subramaniam Pennathur, MD
Dr. Subramaniam Pennathur completed his clinical training in Internal Medicine, Endocrinology and Nephrology at Washington University in Saint Louis, where he served as Chief Resident. He then completed research fellowships at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, Washington University in Saint Louis, and the University of Washington in Seattle.
In addition to Dr. Pennathur's role as Chief for the Division of Nephrology, he also serves as the Director of the Molecular Phenotyping and Metabolomics Core and the Physician Scientist Program in the Department of Internal Medicine.
Dr. Pennathur's research has focused on the applications of biological mass spectrometry in disease pathogenesis. His lab has utilized mass spectrometry to identify key protein and metabolite alterations in disease states and tested the hypothesis whether these alterations predict complications in animal models and humans. Their strategy has been to develop analytical techniques in animal models and validate these markers in humans and then interrogating the animal model for biological pathway relevance. Recent extension of this work has included targeted as well as unbiased metabolomic and proteomic profiling.
