Aims

Will investigate whether brain cells send out signals that change how blood vessels behave. They will study whether these signals are delivered to blood vessels through tiny information packages sent out by nerve cells. The researchers will work to understand how these tiny information packages change after a stroke and how that affects the signals that they send to blood vessels. By increasing our understanding how the brain and blood vessels communicate after a stroke, scientists hope that they may find new clues as to how we can reduce the risk of dementia.
