Pregnancy and Pre-Term Birth Research
Dr. Simmons' main research interests are focused on the causal mechanistic links between the intrauterine milieu and type II diabetes and obesity in the adult with a focus on epigenetics and mitochondria function; the mechanisms underlying in utero exposures to environmental chemicals and the link to the later development of diabetes and obesity; the mechanisms underlying preterm birth.
Structural and functional understanding of TRP channels
The major goal of projects in the laboratory is to establish a detailed structural understanding of the mechanisms of TRP channels activation, desensitization and inhibition, which will help facilitate rational drug design for several human disease. We use cryo electron microscopy as a major tool to study TRP channels.
General Neurology and Perioperative Neurology and Neurophysiology
Our current program is beginning several clinical projects in the area of migraine, neurologic complications of surgery and neurophysiology.
PARO Robot
We will be investigating the benefits of PARO (Person Al Robot), a robotic seal, on the Acute Care for the Elderly Unit.
Improving Home-Assisted Ventilation in Chronic Respiratory Failure
Improving home respiratory care for chronic respiratory failure.
