Mark W. Chapleau, Ph.D.
Professor
Dr. Chapleau's research focuses on mechanisms of baroreceptor activation and factors determining sympathetic nerve activity in normal and pathologic states including hypertension, atherosclerosis and aging. Experimental approaches include studies in genetically modified mice and gene transfer using viral vectors.
