CARDIOVASCULAR RESEARCH:

Researchers in the Department of Physiology at Dartmouth investigate molecular mechanisms of angiogenesis, central nervous system circuits involved in cardiovascular control, and effects of developmental age, sleep state and brain lesions upon that control in a variety of species. The relationship of the latter aspects of cardiovascular control to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) is a common interest of a large group of investigators within the Department.
