- Summary The lab's primary focus is to investigate and develop novel approaches to reduce complications of open fractures. These complications include delayed bone healing, non-unions, recalcitrant infections, and deranged inflammation. The lab is also interested in elucidating immune mechanisms underlying delayed healing of fractures following major musculoskeletal trauma including polytrauma such as those sustained in military and civilian populations. Immune paralysis occurs following major traumatic injuries (blunt trauma, burn, fractures, hemorrhage, etc.) and is believed to contribute to delayed/impaired wound healing. One arm of my research interests focuses on investigating the underlying cellular signaling pathways responsible for creating immune paralysis after major trauma (polytrauma), with a goal to identify inflammatory mediators that will severe as potential therapeutic targets to alleviate immune paralysis and potentiate timely wound healing.
