Integrative Immunological Cardiovascular Research
Using integrative models for the study of disease processes, the integrative immunological cardiovascular research team has studied hypertension, heart disease, diabetes, chemical toxicity, diet, and exercise. Current research focus is on understanding Gulf War illness through a study funded by the Department of Defense. The goal of this multidisciplinary, multi-site research program is to conduct integrative, basic, and clinical studies that will lead to effective disease treatments. Current methodologies in the Integrative Immunological Cardiovascular Research Laboratory include echocardiography, telemetric blood pressure monitoring, genomic and proteomic testing, and exercise testing.
