A review of experimental models of focal cerebral ischemia focusing on the middle cerebral artery occlusion model (2021)
Journal Article

Cerebral ischemic stroke is a leading cause of death and disability, but current pharmacological therapies are limited in their utility and effectiveness. In vitro and in vivo models of ischemic stroke have been developed which allow us to further el...

A longitudinal, multi-parametric functional MRI study to determine age-related changes in the rodent brain (2020)
Journal Article

As the population ages, the incidence of age-related neurological diseases and cognitive decline increases. To further understand disease-related changes in brain function it is advantageous to examine brain activity changes in healthy aging rodent m...

Pre-stroke surgery is not beneficial to normotensive rats undergoing sixty minutes of transient focal cerebral ischemia (2018)
Journal Article

Experimental stroke in rodents, via middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO), can be associated with a negative impact on wellbeing and mortality. In hypertensive rodents, pre-stroke craniotomy increased survival and decreased body weight loss post-MC...
