Research Interest

 Neurovascular Coupling 
 Neurological Disorder 








1) Study the effect of chronic stress on neurovascular coupling at functional and structural level 
2) Study the effect of pathologically heightened neuronal excitation and synchronization on neurovascular coupling at functional and structural level and develop cell-therapy for epilepsy, 
3) Study neurovascular coupling mechanism through neurovascular coupling modulators, such as nitric oxide, carbon monoxide, & glucose, and 4) Develop novel techniques to restore neurovascular coupling dysfunction
