Projects for Thesis
Supervision:
1. Identify the signalling pathways associated
with vascular remodelling in vivo and ex vivo.
2. Understand the molecular mechanisms
underlying the athero-protective effects of shear stress.
3. Investigate atherosclerotic plaque formation
and regression in relation to endothelial function and inflammatory
response.
