Bio / Research:
Dr. Snyder comes to the college from the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine in Rochester, Minn., where he has been an assistant professor of medicine since early 2007. In the past two years, he has received multiple research grants and published more than 25 research papers.
He holds degrees from Missouri Southern State University, the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse and most recently from the University of Minnesota. He completed a predoctoral and a postdoctoral fellowship at the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine, and was a lecturer and adjunct instructor at Winona State University.
His research interests center on similarities in the factors regulating renal Na+ handling and lung fluid balance in healthy humans and in patients with hypertension and heart failure, and how common genetic variation and gene-by-gene interactions influence renal sodium handling and lung fluid balance.
