Patrick Yue

Instructor, Medicine

Clinical Focus

Cardiovascular Disease,
Cardiovascular Medicine

Research Interest

My primary research focus has been the mechanisms of insulin resistance and diabetes as they pertain to the heart. I am particularly interested in the potential involvement of the recently discovered peptide hormone apelin. Recent studies in my laboratory group have focused on apelin's role in promoting insulin sensitivity on the systemic, tissue-specific, and cellular level. We are currently investigating apelin-mediated signaling events in insulin-sensitive and -resistant cardiac muscle.

John Lavelle

Associate Professor - Med Center Line, Urology

Clinical Focus

Voiding dysfunction, incontinence, BPH, Neurogenic bladder

Research Interest

My research interests are clinically 1) voiding dysfunction (BPH, incontinence, urinary retention, & neurogenic bladder). 2) Outcomes research and am currently developing a project to review the management of neurogenic bladder within the VA. Prior research in this field is in BPH. My Basic science interests are in epithelial physiology particularly that of the urothelium lining the bladder. Specifically permeability properties and neuro-epithelial interactions relating to sensation
