research overview
|
Dr. Lane’s research program focuses upon on how perinatal events affect in vivo epigenetic determinants of gene expression and lead to adult disease. In 1996, Dr. Lane published his first original science manuscript on this focus, and he has remained committed to the topic. Indeed, the vast majority of his > 90 publications are devoted to how perinatal events lead to adult disease. In 2003, Dr. Lane published his first original science manuscript on how perinatal events impact in vivo epigenetics. This study stands among the earliest to demonstrate that a perinatal event affected the epigenetics of a specific gene. Dr. Lane also has a track record of NIH funding as P.I. and a Co-I, the latter demonstrating his willingness to enthusiastically engage in team science. In 2013, Dr. Lane accepted the position of Pediatrician in Chief and Chair of Pediatrics at Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin. This move required Dr. Lane to move his laboratory. Yet, despite the move and the job requirements, Dr. Lane has maintained his scholarly productivity. In 2020, Dr. Lane accepted the position of Executive Vice President /Physician in Chief at Children’s Mercy in Kansas City. Dr. Lane has actively participated in the US Developmental Origins and Health and Disease Society. He has served as the scientific program officer for 2018 and 2019. In 2019, he was elected President of the Society. Dr. Lane’s laboratory has continued to be productive scientifically publishing papers in 2018 and 2019. Dr. Lane also chaired the NIH Social Epigenomics Study Section in 2020. His laboratory will move from Milwaukee to Kansas City in 6/2020 pending the impact of COVID-19.
