We are a teaching-based laboratory with expertise in vascular and renal physiology/pharmacology.  We have a specific interest in extracellular vesicle biology. We have a diverse research team with experienced senior members who work together with emerging trainees. 

Our trainees have the opportunity to present at national and international meetings including Hypertension Canada, The Canadian Society of Pharmacology and Therapeutics, The International Society of Hypertension and the American Society of Nephrology where they have been well recognized for the quality of their work.
