RESEARCH

Our laboratory studies the cerebral circulation under physiological and pathological conditions. In particular, we are interested in how changes in cerebrovascular structure and function affect cerebral blood flow regulation and hemodynamics in ways that could promote brain injury. In addition, we are interested in blood-brain barrier properties and how changes in permeability to water or solutes can promote injury, including seizure and ischemic stroke. Specific areas we are interested in include:

  • Acute ischemic stroke and reperfusion injury
  • Cerebrovascular adaptation to pregnancy and preeclampsia/eclampsia
  • Long-term cardiovascular consequences of preeclampsia.

 Specific projects can be found here.
