Research Summary

1. Developmental vascular morphogenesis. We aim to elucidate the crosstalk of two environmental cues, VEGF and fluid shear stress, in coordinating angiogenesis and arteriogenesis during capillary-to-artery cell fate transition.

2. Adult arteriogenesis and therapeutic neovascularization. This involves the mechanisms of growth factor signaling and hemodynamic force in control of blood flow recovery in arterial occlusive diseases.

3. VEGF receptor signaling in endothelial permeability.
