Funded Activity Summary

Hypertension is the major driver of cardiovascular disease affecting over a billion people. The cause is increasingly lifestyle related (obesity and stress) and activation of the nervous system is a major contributor in all cases. My vision for the next 5 years is discover the key underlying mechanisms within the central nervous system and the kidney that are primarily responsible for increasing nervous activity and blood pressure.
