Biography
At Stanford, the Long laboratory studies the signaling pathways that control mammalian energy metabolism. Dr. Long’s contributions in the areas of metabolism and energy homeostasis have been recognized by numerous awards including the NIDDK DP1 Catalyst Award, the NIH Pathways to Independence Award, and the Ono Pharma Foundation Breakthrough Sciences Award. The long-term goal of this work is to discover new molecules and physiologic pathways that can be translated into therapeutic opportunities for obesity, metabolic disease, and other age-associated chronic diseases.
