Education

A major mission of the lab is to train the next generation of scientists and physician-scientists in the field of mitochondria and metabolism in a supportive environment.  The lab has trained and currently training graduate PhD students and MD/PhD student- total of 25.  Dr. Chandel has received the Clarence Ver Steeg Faculty Mentor Award, which recognizes individual faculty members from any department throughout Northwestern University for their outstanding efforts in supporting and encouraging the academic and professional development of graduate students.  The lab has also trained and currently training post-doctoral fellows-total of 16. 

​

Dr. Chandel has written an introductory book on metabolism, “Navigating metabolism” (CSHL press 2015). See links:
