Research
My research focuses on how the immune system is compromised after traumatic brain injuries (TBI) and how interactions with additional sources of stress may exacerbate TBI outlook and recovery. Additionally I am interested in the long term changes in inflammation and cellular function after TBI that may predispose the brain to future development of Alzheimer's Disease-like pathologies.
