Investigating how the heart and the brain affect our health
Our Mission
The Aging, Brain, Circulation (ABC) Laboratory aims to understand how the brain and blood circulation affect health and disease. We study the relationship between brain blood flow regulation, brain structure changes, and the outcomes of injury to the brain or circulatory system. We now understand markers of brain blood flow regulation, which can be used to predict brain and blood circulation diseases.
