Marianna Zamlauski-Tucker has been a member of the department since 1994. She specializes in the mechanisms of kidney injury at the organ, cellular, and molecular leves; determining the effects of factors, such as age, dietary antioxidant supplementation, and ischemia-reperfusion injury, on alterations in the mitochondrial levels of reduced glutathione.
