Roy L. Silverstein, MD, is a Professor in the Department of Medicine at the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW). He holds key affiliations with MCW's research centers, including the Cancer Center, Cardiovascular Research Center, Center for Disease Prevention Research, and Mellowes Center for Genomic Sciences and Precision Medicine, highlighting his interdisciplinary focus.
His research explores mechanisms of atherosclerosis, thrombosis, and inflammation, with emphasis on:
- CD36 scavenger receptor signaling in macrophages and platelets
- Oxidative stress and redox regulation in vascular disease
- Lipid metabolism and metabolic inflammation
- Thrombospondin-mediated angiogenesis modulation
Analysis of recent publications (2022-2025) reveals dominant themes:
- CD36's role in platelet hyperreactivity and thrombosis in metabolic disorders
- Ion transport (Na/K-ATPase) intersections with inflammation
- Macrophage metabolic reprogramming in atherosclerosis
- Translational studies informing clinical guidelines for thrombotic disorders
While no awards are listed in the source text, his extensive publication record in high-impact journals underscores significant scholarly contributions. He mentors through research collaborations but no specific advisees are named.
