Susan Sheehan, BA, MS

Research Lab Manager

Supports the lab in exploring the decline of renal function with age with a focus on developing and utilizing tools to quantify changes in physiology by examining variation in histological features.

I joined JAX in 2001 and have been working on the genetics of renal function since 2003. We utilize many of the resources at JAX to explore the decline of renal function with age. I especially enjoy developing new models and tool to assess kidney function in mice.
