Molecular mechanisms of mechanical unloading-induced recovery
Heart failure therapies have undergone massive changes in recent times, one of the most significant of which is the use of mechanical circulatory support as a means of inducing cardiac recovery.
The Effect of Early Adolescent Exposure to Prescription Opioids
The student would work closely with a graduate student or postdoc, and depending on the level of experience or interest work on a molecular or behavioral project.
Neurosurgical Enhanced Recovery After Surgery
Dr. Ali, MD is interested in understanding the biomechanics of nerve injury and developing translational repair strategies for improving functional outcomes following nerve injury.
Ocular surface wound healing and tumorigenesis
Cross-pollination in work: Harnessing innate molecular mechanisms of wound healing and tumorigenesis to understand and inform therapeutic development for each
Mechanistic and translational studies for the treatment of hemophilia
Our research pivots on a unique model that we have developed, whereby we can enhance the extrinsic pathway of coagulation by raising the circulating levels of activated FVII (FVIIa) in animal models.
Oxygenation, Clinical Analgesia, and Ventilation
Dr. Hopster's research interests include tissue microperfusion and oxygenation, especially gastrointestinal; clinical analgesia; and pulmonary function, especially ventilation, during and after anesthesia.
Molecular mechanisms of nervous system plasticity
Using the zebrafish as an experimental model system, we are interested in deciphering the cellular and molecular mechanisms of nervous system plasticity.
Genetic Basis and Modifiers of Congenital Heart Disease
