inflammatory cytokines — an effect that was blocked by either a TLR4 antagonist or an anti-TLR4 antibody.
As an
Associate Professor at OSU, my research has been concentrated in the areas of aging, neuroimmunology, and neurotrauma.Overall, my research aim is to determine the degree to which the bi-directional communication between the brain and the immune system is affected by age, stress, and traumatic CNS injury and to delineate the mechanism by which
inflammatory cytokine pathways cause long - lasting complications (e.g., cognitive decline and depression).
