The main research focus in the Petkovich lab is understanding the role of hormone receptor signalling in health and disease. Their current efforts are focused on vitamin A and vitamin D signalling and metabolism as they relate to bone development (along with pathological calcification of tissues), skin disorders, kidney disease, and tumour metastasis. The Petkovich lab is also actively involved in drug development for treatment of diseases that respond to modulators of vitamin A and D signalling, such as CKD, acne, wound healing, and metastasis. 

Martin is a co-applicant on the NFRF-Exploration Project.
