Research Areas
Bladder Research
Areas of active investigation by members of our team, include understanding the neural circuits that control bladder function, bladder-brain responses to outlet obstruction and urinary retention, bladder dysfunction in diabetes, overactive bladder, and ketamine cystitis
Kidney Research
How does the brain control kidney function? Little is known about the precise neurons that project to the spinal cord and to the kidney, to regulate renal blood flow and glomerular filtration rate. Working together with Dr. Sean Stocker at the University of Pittsburgh, this project will map circuits that are critical for maintaining blood pressure and water/electrolyte balance
Our Lab is Located in the Longwood/Fenway Area of Boston
