Research Interests
My laboratory is interested in the mechanisms that underlie adverse cardiac remodeling leading to heart failure. We are particularly focused on cardiac fibrosis, a condition of excess extracellular matrix production in the heart that has important consequences for heart function. Current projects involve investigations into the contribution of neuropeptides and inflammatory cell in this process.
