Aldrin Gomes, 2017 Chancellor’s Fellow, examines the molecular mechanisms of signal transduction, particularly in the role of protein homeostasis in cardiovascular disease.  Two main research areas are the role of the proteasome and immunoproteasome in cardiac and skeletal muscles, and the role of troponin in calcium regulation of muscle contraction in cardiomyopathies.
