As a Ph.D. and Vice Chair for Research in a clinical department, I direct a laboratory that focuses on animal physiology with special emphasis on cardiovascular and pulmonary physiology. I have completed several ground-breaking experiments on the interactions between antihypertensive and anesthetic agents. As a result, I have introduced many innovations to the field of cardiovascular physiology by developing animal models e.g., dogs, pigs and rats to study the relationship between impaired vascular tone and the induction of nitric oxide synthase in order to understand the mechanisms of pathological conditions, such as cardiovascular deconditioning, septic shock, hemorrhagic shock and heart failure.
