My laboratory is focused on three principal areas: 1) the role of inflammation in chronic diseases including atherosclerosis, pulmonary hypertension, aneurysms, and neurodegenerative diseases; 2) the role of syndecan-2 in selective regulation of immune responses; 3) metabolic control of cell fate transition. All studies are carried out with the view to translation.
