Investigating cardiac repair in a new adult mammalian model for regeneration, the spiny mouse, Acomys cahirinus
Nearly 800,000 Americans have a heart attack each year which results in the death of many cells and the production of scar tissue in the surviving ventricular tissue. The contracti...
Mechanisms of oxygen off-loading from red blood cells in murine models of human disease
Red blood cells (RBCs) play a vital role in gas transport—carrying O2 from the alveolar air to systemic tissues, and CO2 in the opposite direction. Their task is central to many di...
Clinically trusted Artificial Intelligence and medical image analysis for monitoring inflammatory arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) are the two most prevalent forms of inflammatory arthritis that cause autoimmune-induced joint inflammation leading to struc...
Impact of Diet Induced Obesity on Acute Lung Injury

Collaborative Research: Does responding to stressors prime greater resilience? Testing the long-term effects of challenges on behavior, physiology, epigenetic state, and fitness.
When faced with a major challenge – severe weather, the attack of a predator, an injury – organisms mount a coordinated physiological and behavioral stress response. This response...
