Current Research

Tony’s postdoctoral research is centered around cardiovascular remodeling in health and disease. Using non-human primates as a model, one stream of Tony’s postdoctoral research examines how the social environment influences cardiovascular health and aging, and explores the underlying mechanisms, with the ultimate goal of informing human health research. Tony’s program of research also builds upon his graduate work to further examine the acute and chronic cardiovascular adaptations response to exercise, with a particular interest in the right ventricle, heart-lung interactions, and functional capacity.
