Welcome to the Butterworth Lab

Research in the Butterworth lab focuses on the regulation of non-coding RNA in kidney epithelial cells. Current projects investigate the hormonal regulation of renal sodium transport, sex differences in microRNA regulation in the kidney, and the role of microRNAs in acute kidney injury (AKI).

You will learn more about us and our work on this site (tabs/menus at the top). Graduate students interested in rotation projects should look at the research tab where we list opportunities.
