Crandall Lab
Research in Dr. Crandall's Thermal and Vascular Physiology Laboratory focuses on neural control of the cardiovascular system and how different stressors influence that control in healthy, diseased, and injured individuals, such as:
- Identifying the consequences of severe burn injuries and subsequent skin grafting on the ability of the burn survivor to regulate internal temperature and cardiovascular function.
- Understanding the consequences of aging on cardiovascular stress during simulated heat waves.
- Exploring cooling modalities to attenuate thermal and cardiovascular stress.
- Understanding how analgesics used on the battlefield affect autonomic control of blood pressure during hemorrhage.
