Isotope Tracers in Metabolic Research: Principles and Practice of Kinetic Analysis, 2nd Edition

Robert R. Wolfe, Ph.D. is currently John H. Sealy Distinguished Chair in Clinical Research at the University of Texas Medical Branch and Chief of Metabolism at the Shriners Burns Hospital in Galveston, Texas. He received his Ph.D. from the University of California, Santa Barbara, spent 8 years as a faculty member at Harvard Medical School, and moved to Galveston in 1983. He is widely recognized for his research in physiological metabolism using isotopically labeled tracers.

David L. Chinkes, Ph.D. received his Ph.D. in Mathematical Modeling in Metabolism in 1996 from the University of Texas Medical Branch, and is currently Associate Professor of Surgery and a member of the Metabolism Unit at the Shriners Burns Hospital at Galveston, Texas. His research looks at developing new methods for measuring metabolic parameters in vivo.
