Navdeep S Chandel is a Professor at the Feinberg School of Medicine, Northwestern University. His research primarily focuses on the role of mitochondria in cellular signaling and cancer biology. Chandel's lab has significantly contributed to the understanding of mitochondrial functions beyond energy production, emphasizing their involvement in reactive oxygen species (ROS) release and various metabolic pathways. His findings challenge previous notions regarding aerobic glycolysis as the main metabolic adaptation in cancer cells, offering insights into mitochondrial metabolism as a crucial process in tumor growth and development. He has published extensively in the field, including a book titled “Navigating Metabolism” released by Cold Spring Harbor Press in 2015. Chandel has received multiple awards for his contributions to cancer research, including recognition as a Highly Cited Researcher by Clarivate. His work has implications for therapeutic strategies targeting mitochondria and their metabolic functions in cancer and immune responses.
