Research Sudol's research was mainly focused on cell signaling, oncogenes, and mechanobiology. The key goal of his research team has been to understand signaling modalities of WW domain-containing YAP (aka YAP1) oncoprotein and crosstalk of other WW domain-containing proteins in the Hippo-YAP/TAZ tumor suppressor pathway. He is known for his work on modular protein domains. Among his 180 published papers, he has a number of highly cited articles, which have been referenced collectively more than 18,000 times. His H-index is 83. and was a co-founder and co-leader of the Protein Modules Consortium from 2003 - 2018. From 2016 to 2019, he taught at The Beutler Institute in Xiamen University, China.
