Cardiorespiratory:

Prof David Greensmith: My research group investigates the cellular basis of the heart’s normal function and its dysfunction in disease. Current projects seek to better understand (1) why anti-cancer drugs cause heart failure and (2) how abnormal heart cell function contributes to coronary artery disease. In both cases, I am particularly interested in the role of abnormal calcium signaling and oxidative stress. To do this, my lab uses advanced techniques such as single cell patch clamping and photometric measurement of intracellular calcium and oxidative stress.

Dr Amy Morgan: I investigate ageing and age-related disease by computationally modelling biochemical pathways. I have focused on cholesterol metabolism due to its close relationship with cardiovascular disease.
