Amy Bataille

Amy Bataille serves as an Associate Professor in the Department of Health Sciences and Nursing at Eastern Connecticut State University, where she maintains an active research program in renal and gastrointestinal physiology. Her office is located in Goddard Hall, Room 217, with regular office hours for student consultation throughout the academic week.

Her academic foundation includes:

• Ph.D. in Physiology and Neurobiology from the University of Connecticut
• Post-doctoral Research Fellowship in Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of Connecticut
• Post-doctoral Research Fellowship in Nutritional Sciences at the University of Connecticut

Dr. Bataille's research program centers on renal physiology with specialized expertise in uric acid homeostasis and molecular transport mechanisms in the kidneys. Her work extends to gastrointestinal physiology, particularly irritable bowel syndrome, investigating the interplay between renal and intestinal systems. This dual focus enables comprehensive exploration of metabolic regulation across organ systems.

Analysis of her publication record reveals a consistent trajectory from fundamental renal mechanisms in avian models to clinically relevant pathways in mammalian systems. Her research demonstrates particular strength in transporter biology (Mrp4, Nrf2-regulated systems) and stress-response pathways, with recent work bridging basic science to applications in drug metabolism and lipid disorders.

Scientific Awards: No awards or honors are documented in the available information.

Advising and Grants: While her extensive publication record suggests active mentorship and research funding, specific details about advised students or secured grants are not provided in the current documentation. Her collaborative publications indicate regular engagement with interdisciplinary research teams.

Laboratory and Research Teams: Dr. Bataille's work utilizes specialized models including murine enteroids and avian renal preparations, though specific laboratory names or team structures are not detailed in the available materials. Her research methodology combines molecular, cellular, and physiological approaches to investigate transport mechanisms.
