I am a cardiorespiratory neuroscientist. My work aims to discover what determines central respiratory and sympathetic activity and how this controls breathing and the circulation in health and disease
I am a neuroscientist-biochemist-cell biologist determining the mechanisms by which lipids and lipid transporters regulate neurodegeneration and vascular disease. I have recently developed a prototype drug that shows promise as a novel therapeutic approach for Alzheimer's disease.
I am a psychologist whose research program aims to improve the long-term well-being for children born very small or immature. My research focuses on 1) determining the nature and severity of cognitive and behavioural problems faced by children born very small-immature, 2) investigating how these problems are associated with brain injury and alterations to brain development, and 3) assessing the effectiveness of clinical interventions which aim to reduce complications and enhance development.
