Research Projects

Areas of research interest include:

• Notch and Hedgehog signalling in adult vasculature
• Vascular effects of ‘healthy’ and ‘harmful’ drinking patterns
• Stem cells in remodelling and disease
• Atheroprone vs atheroprotective flow
• Cell plasticity and phenotypic heterogeneity in healthy and diseased arteries
