Dr. Tammy Sirich's research is focused on dialysis and accumulated (uremic) solutes.  She conducts studies testing ways to reduce levels of uremic solutes and examining the contribution of uremic solutes to the clinical manifestations of kidney disease.  Dr. Sirich uses mass spectrometry techniques to quantify uremic solutes and identify new solutes.
