Stephen Hunsucker, PhD
Assistant Professor of Pediatrics
Stephen Hunsucker received his doctorate degree in chemistry from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in 2001. He completed a postdoctoral fellowship in biochemistry and molecular biology at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in 2002 and another in biochemistry/proteomics at the University of Colorado Denver School of Medicine in 2004. Dr. Hunsucker joined the faculty of the Department of Pediatrics at the University of Colorado Denver School of Medicine and The Children’s Hospital in 2004.
Dr. Hunsucker is interested in using proteomics as a tool for translational research. He is actively involved in the discovery and validation of biomarkers that have clinical utility in the management and treatment of pediatric diseases. He is currently pursuing validation of a panel of putative biomarkers that are believed to be indicative of pulmonary exacerbation and predictive of lung function decline in cystic fibrosis.
Dr. Hunsucker is a member of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry and the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. He has published many articles and abstracts in the medical literature, and he has been an invited speaker nationwide.
