Renal

Dr. Lin’s research interests focuses on proteinuric renal diseases and glomerulopathies. Her current research examines associations between diet, lipids, and inflammatory biomarkers and the development of nephropathy in adult-onset diabetes mellitus using subjects participating in the Nurses’ Health Study and Health Professionals’ Follow-Up Study.
