Research project funded by NIAAA to study the effects of alcohol on mitochondrial alterations in traumatic brain injury recovery, focusing on ferroptosis mechanisms.
Description
This project investigates the impact of alcohol on mitochondrial function in traumatic brain injury (TBI) recovery, including mechanisms like ferroptosis. It aims to elucidate how alcohol exacerbates mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress in TBI, with a focus on ferroptosis. It involves research training and leverages expertise in mitochondrial mechanisms of tissue injury.
