Eric Delpire, B.H. Robbins Endowed Direcor in Anesthesiology, is Professor of Anesthesiology and Molecular Physiology & Biophysics at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. He received his PhD in Physiology from the University of Liège, Belgium and trained at Wright State University, Dayton, OH and Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Boston, MA. For the past 23 years, he has conducted research in the Department of Anesthesiology, Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, TN. He is a recognized expert in the fields of cell volume regulation and ion transport in neurons and epithelial cells. He is credited for the discovery of the interaction between SPAK/OSR1 and cation-chloride cotransporters and the interaction between SPAK/OSR1 and WNK kinases. These discoveries led to the characterization of the WNK-SPAK kinase cascade, a regulatory pathway critical in the regulation of salt transport in the distal nephron. Since 1999, Dr. Delpire has created numerous genetically-modified mouse models of cation-chloride transporters, kinases, and other regulatory molecules. These include traditional global and conditional knockout or knockin mice as well CRISPR/cas9-generated knockout and knockin mice. Dr. Delpire has published over 170 peer-reviewed papers and several book chapters. He is a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and a fellow of the American Physiological Society.
