Kamendulis is Core Director, Oxidative Stress and Environmental Analysis Core at Indiana University Department of Environmental Health. After completing her undergraduate degree in Biology from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, Dr. Kamendulis received her Ph.D. Toxicology from the University of New Mexico in 1994, where she studied mechanisms of hepatotoxicity, specifically focusing on the induction of apoptosis. Her research focused on examining mechanisms by which environmental agents and therapeutic drugs elicit liver cancer, both in vivo and in vitro rodent models to examine the role of oxidative stress in modulating growth regulatory signaling networks and gene expression elicited by nongenotoxic carcinogens. She has published over 60 peer-reviewed manuscripts, and book chapters in the areas of Toxicology and chemical carcinogenesis. |
