Dr. Robinson's lab is focused on understanding how developmental signaling pathways, particularly ROS-related signaling pathways, influence intestinal epithelial homeostasis and contribute to tumorigenesis. Moreover, he is interested in identifying mechanisms by which host microbial populations activate these cellular pathways, as well as, identifying novel effectors of tissue restitution in metazoans.
He recently received the Clinician Scientist Developmental Award from the American Cancer Society to investigate a novel proliferative checkpoint between the redox-sensitive transcription factor Nrf2 and proliferative phenotypes in the murine intestine. His lab utilizes a wide variety of cellular, molecular, genetic, and translational techniques, including using the model organism Drosophila to identify conserved cellular pathways across metazoans.
Patients who are treated in outpatient and inpatient environments are eligible to receive a survey related to their individual care. Displayed ratings and reviews are displayed for Providers who have received at least 30 returned surveys over a 12-month period and are related to all Care Provider related survey questions. To help our patients better understand our Transparency program (ratings and review), the motivations behind it, how ratings are calculated, why ratings and reviews are not published for every EHC Provider, and how this information can be helpful for our patients, please click here.
