My research mainly focuses on metabolic regulation of calcium-activated potassium channels, endothelial function and microcirculation under a variety of pathological conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, obesity, heart failure, ischemia/reperfusion, cardioplegic arrest and cardiopulmonary bypass. Our goal is to develop new therapeutic strategies that ultimately should benefit patients with cardiovascular disease.
