Research interests for Patients:
Dr Judy Regensteiner and I are trying to understand the molecular underpinnings of decreased functional exercise capacity in youth and adults with uncomplicated type1 and type 2 diabetes. We have clinical interventions ongoing to see if medications can improve exercise function in people with diabetes. In addition, we are actively working to better understand sex-differences in exercise capacity on people with and without diabetes and differences in response to exercise training. For these studies we are employing advanced cardiac and vascular imaging in collaboration with Drs Barker and Nadeau at children's Hospital.

Information for Referring Providers

Research Interest for Referring Providers
My research focuses on Diabetes, Vascular Biology, Exercise and CREB. Our goal is to understand the molecular response of the blood vessel to exercise training and see if we can optimize the blood vessel response in disease states such as diabetes, obesity and pulmonary hypertension.
