S. W. Cushman Created 2026-10-20 Updated 2026-11-05
Researcher studying insulin and glucose transport. Cushman and collaborators investigated the movement of intracellular transport systems to the cell membrane in adipose cells, helping distinguish transporter redistribution from production of additional transporter molecules.[ref]
