In Memory: John Claybaugh, PhD, "the Heart of Physiology Research in Hawai'i"
John Claybaugh, retired JABSOM faculty member and Tripler. Army Medical Center Research Physiologist, passed away last week at the age of 79. He is pictured here with Cathy Uyehara, now Director of Clinical Investigation at Tripler, whom he mentored. JABSOM Anatomy Professor and former Chair Dr. Scott Lozanff said Dr. Claybaugh was a significant contributor to our undergraduate Physiology program, providing renal & electrolyte balance Physiology lectures to JABSOM medial students for many years. “He was one of the first researchers to assay circulating vasopressin in humans and contributed significantly to our understanding of its cardiovascular and renal functions,” said Lozanoff. “Above all, he was a superlative mentor, dedicated academician and consummate gentleman, who will be sorely missed.”
His friends have begun making donations in his name to the UH Foundation.
