Our Mission
The overall goals of the Brain and Vascular Health (BRAVE) Laboratory are to investigate:
- How the health of the cardiovascular system (the heart and its blood vessels) influences healthy and unhealthy brain aging, and if these processes differ between men and women.
- Role of reproductive health (e.g., pregnancy, infertility, endometriosis) on cardiovascular and brain health in women.
- Identify effective sex-specific therapies to reduce or delay cardiovascular and brain aging in women.
