Noah Marcus

Noah Marcus is an Associate Professor in the Department of Physiology and Pharmacology at Des Moines University Medicine and Health Sciences. He holds additional roles in the Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine Program, Master of Science in Biomedical Sciences Program, and Ph.D. in Biomedical Sciences Program. His expertise spans autonomic regulation, cardiopulmonary physiology, cardiovascular disease, and sleep apnea.

Dr. Marcus earned his Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison (2010), followed by a post-doctoral fellowship at the University of Nebraska Medical Center (2010–2015). His research focuses on cardio-renal dysfunction in heart failure, sex steroid hormones in sleep apnea, and therapeutic interventions like remote ischemic conditioning.

Research Interests: His work examines mechanisms underlying chemoreflex dysfunction in heart failure, autonomic dysregulation in sleep disorders, and cardio-renal interactions. Key areas include glomerular hyperfiltration, hepatic microcirculation, and neuroinflammatory pathways.

Publications highlight advancements in understanding chronic intermittent hypoxia effects, medullary astrocyte signaling, and therapeutic strategies for long-COVID cardiovascular complications. His studies often utilize rodent models to explore novel treatment avenues.
