The Manning lab is defining the molecular connections between nutrient signaling and metabolic networks under both physiological and pathological states. Lab researchers are particularly focused on the role of the PI3K-mTOR signaling network in the control of cellular and systemic metabolism and its impact on the insulin response, type-2 diabetes, cancer, neurological disorders, and aging.
