Dr. Hyndman is a basic scientist whose research focuses on the physiological role of histone deacetylase (HDAC) enzymes in the regulation of fluid-electrolyte balance in mammalian models. However, deranged HDAC activity correlates with a number of cardiovascular and renal diseases, and in the setting of ischemia/reperfusion injury, Dr. Hyndman’s lab is investigating the putative contribution of HDACs in the progression of chronic kidney disease. She also serves on the ASN Media and Communications Committee. @DrKeeksPhD
