Dr. Campbell is a professor, Roy J. Carver Biomedical Research Chair in Molecular Physiology and Biophysics, and director of the Senator Paul D. Wellstone Muscular Dystrophy Specialized Research Center at the University of Iowa's Carver College of Medicine. He's also an investigator at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. Research in Dr. Campbell's lab is focused on the mechanism of muscular dystrophies and development of therapeutic strategies to treat muscular dystrophy. His studies on dystroglycan have since led to significant insights into its basic function as an extracellular matrix receptor in skeletal muscle, its role in the maintenance of muscle-cell membrane integrity, and its role in the molecular pathogenesis of glycosylation deficient muscular dystrophy.
