About Mohan K. Raizada, Ph.D. Hua Fu Department of Cardiorenal and Cerebrovascular Medicine, Kagawa University School of Medicine Q：279486524 Mohan K. Raizada, Ph.D. Distinguished Professor Member of the McKnight Brain Institute Member of The Neurogenic Cardiovascular Diseases Consortium Mohan K. Raizada, Ph.D. Dr. Raizada has been a biomedical researcher and educator for 25 years.? He received his Ph.D from the University of Kanpur, India and performed dissertation research at the Central Drug Research Institute, India.? Dr. Raizada joined the Department of Physiology and Biophysics, University of Iowa as an assistant professor in 1979.? He moved to the University of Florida in 1981 as an associate professor where he is currently a Distinguished Professor of Physiology and Functional Genomics. Dr. Raizada is a leader in the field of neural control of cardiovascular functions and has pioneered physiological genomic techniques to investigate the involvement of the renin-angiotensin system in cardiopulmonary disease. His most significant contribution has been the demonstration that angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and vasoprotective axis of the RAS plays a critical role in maintaining a normal cardiovascular homeostasis, and is poised to be a better therapeutic target for the next generation of antihypertensives. Dr. Raizada has published 210 peer-reviewed papers, 55 review articles, edited ten books, and has been and continues to be an invited speaker at national and international meetings.?
