He serves as the director of the vascular program at the Institute for Cell Engineering.[1] He is a 2016 recipient of the Lasker Award for Basic Medical Research.[2] He is known for his discovery of HIF-1, which allows cancer cells to adapt to oxygen-poor environments. He received the 2019 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for "discoveries of how cells sense and adapt to oxygen availability". [3]
He studied beta thalassemia while doing his PhD at the University of Pennsylvania.[3]
