Principal Investigator

My research employs molecular biology to understand the pathophysiology of cardiovascular disease using human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC)-derived tissue. Advances in next generation sequencing (NGS), proteomics, and gene editing have made it possible to decipher the mechanisms of cardiovascular disease.

Principal Investigator

My research focuses on studying samples from patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit with acute infection to understand how heterogeneity in the immune response and endothelial injury contribute to patient outcomes. The goal of my research is to improve our understanding of sepsis pathobiology and identify treatable biological traits.

C3RP Lab Manager

My prior research has investigated protein trafficking and dermatological health using cell biology and molecular biology techniques. My roles in the C3RP Team are to provide technical and other support to students, help manage the laboratory, perform and summarize experiments, and receive and process clinical research samples.

C3RP Research Technician

I prepare and perform experiments using human tissue samples following defined protocols and procedures, and I also provide assistance, training and oversight to students regarding experimental procedures and techniques.

Postdoctoral Associate

I am a PhD Graduate in Life Sciences from Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham University. My PhD work used human iPSC-derived hepatocytes as an in vitro drug toxicity screening platform. In the C3RP team, my research focuses on investigating the effects of environmental risk factors on the cardiovascular system.

MSc Student

I am a master's student in Microbiology and Immunology at the Schulich School. I completed my undergraduate in Molecular and Cellular Biology at Azad University of Medical Science, Tehran, Iran. My research focuses on the effects of Macrophages in ARDS.

MSc Student

I am a master's student in Physiology and Pharmacology interested in environmental cardiology. With the C3RP lab, I am examining the effect of cannabis use on cardiovascular health in HIV+ patients.

Critical Care Medicine Fellow

I completed medical school at the Schulich School of Medicine at Western University, followed by Internal Medicing residency. I am currently a Critical Care Medicine fellow. My research interests include biomarker development, proteomics and molecular imaging. With the C3RP laboratory, I am characterizing the molecular biology of venous congestion in critical illness.

Clinical trial programme placement

I am an M.Sc graduate of microbiology and a current postgraduate diploma student in the clinical trial management programme at Western University. In the C3RP laboratory, my research focuses on understanding disease mechanisms using iPSC-disease modelling to identify new biomarkers and potential treatments for cardiovascular disease.

SRTP Student

I am a third-year medical student at the Schulich School of Medicine. I completed undergraduate and Master’s degrees at McMaster in Biomedical Discovery and Commercialization and worked for the Health Economics and Outcomes Research group of a pharmaceutical company. My research focuses on using iPSCs to understand endothelial injury during sepsis.

SRTP Student

I am a second-year medical student at the Schulich School of Medicine. I completed my Bachelor of Health Sciences at Queen’s University, where I studied antibiotic resistance mechanisms. After experiencing septic shock myself, I was inspired to join C3RP to understand sepsis pathophysiology. My research focuses on understanding immune responses in patients with early sepsis.

Honours Specialization Student

I am a fourth-year Medical Sciences student specializing in Microbiology and Immunology. My research interest focuses on the role of macrophages in driving endothelial dysfunction during critical illness.

Honours Specialization Student

I am in the fourth-year of the Medical Sciences undergraduate program. I hope to pursue a career in medicine and explore my interests through research.

Undergraduate student

I am Scholar’s Elective undergraduate student in Medical Sciences at Western University. My research focuses on the effects of critical illness on neurocognition. I am excited to apply my research experience to real-world clinical challenges to improve patient outcomes in critical care settings.

Udergraduate student

I am a third-year Honours Specialization Rehabilitation Sciences undergraduate student at Western University. I aspire to become a Neurologist. My research interests are neurocognition in the critically ill, and I am eager to apply my knowledge of the impact of severe illnesses in my future career.
