Eric Gross Lab
We are a translational lab precisely advancing anesthetic pharmacology, pain, and organ injury research
Our Focus
The research is centrally focused on aldehydes and aldehyde metabolism by the enzyme aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2). Nearly 540 million people carry a genetic variant in ALDH2, ALDH2*2, which affects these biological processes we study. This is highlighted by our research published in journals such as Science Translational Medicine, Pain, BJA, Journal of Clinical Investigation, Redox Biology, and Physiological Reviews.
Core Values
Our lab is fully committed to diversity, equity and inclusion.
Stanford University is in Santa Clara County where 34% of our population is Asian. Our studies ultimately will provide precision medical care for this population while also providing insight into basic biological mechanisms to unlock novel strategies to impact care for people of all ethnicities.
