Lale Ozcan is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Medicine at Columbia University Medical Center and her work focuses on exploring novel signaling pathways that control metabolic homeostasis. Lale joined the laboratory of Dr. Ira Tabas at Columbia University in 2008 where she studied the detailed signaling pathways and mechanisms underlying excessive glucose production and altered insulin signaling in obesity. In addition to exploring signaling pathways, her work in Tabas lab also uncovered new therapeutic opportunities in the context of insulin resistance.
