Our overall goal is to perform novel research that will improve outcomes for trauma patients.

Ongoing studies are focused on:
1. Effects of traumatic brain injury on endothelial Ca2+ signals and vasodilatory function
2. Cerebrovascular endothelium and barrier function in TBI
3. Cognitive therapy and MRI after TBI
