Research Description

My early career contributions were focused on investigating the mechanisms of wound healing. I also studied the protective effects of SIRT1 activators on sarcopenia and cognitive impairment in aged animals. Furthermore, I also studied cardiovascular pharmacology where my main area of research was the pharmacological effect of Vitamin D in pulmonary hypertension in a preclinical rat model. My current research focuses on the heart-brain axis in stroke and dementia.
