Position: Master Student Mentor: Dr. Biose Rukayat Raji's Orcid Publications " I am investigating whether a Novel exercise-responsive metabolite can protect the blood-brain barrier, reduce neuroinflammation, and preserve cognitive function during DOCA-salt hypertension." |
 |
Position: PhD Student Mentor: Dr. Klempin "I study how angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), influences the aging brain and cardiovascular function. Using aged mice that overexpress human ACE2 in neurons; I examine sex differences in behavior, blood pressure, serotonin and tryptophan metabolism, and hippocampal microglia to understand how ACE2 shapes neuroinflammation and age-related neurological and cardiovascular conditions." |

Position: Postdoctoral Research Fellow Mentor: Dr. Mohandas "Research focuses on understanding brain–kidney–heart communication in chronic kidney disease (CKD), particularly how microglial immune-metabolic reprogramming contributes to neuroinflammation, sympathetic hyperactivity, and cardiovascular dysfunction. The ultimate goal is to identify novel therapeutic targets for CKD-associated cardiovascular and neurological complications." " |
