Research
My research conducts both clinical as well as basic science research in the neonates. I investigate the effects of novel interventions in critically ill neonates and the long-term outcome in early childhood. Newborn piglet is the animal model used in the laboratory for basic science studies. The current focus of the Neonatal Sciences Laboratory is on the effects of hypoxia-reoxygenation injury and the actions of inotrope in systemic and regional circulations and platelet functions.
