Elysia Poggi Davis — Dr. Elysia Poggi Davis's lab at the University of Denver focuses on understanding how prenatal sleep affects the cardiovascular health of children. They explore the connections between a mother's sleep patterns during pregnancy and various biological and behavioral factors that may influence a child's risk for cardiovascular disease later in life. The lab conducts research involving diverse populations and aims to identify new strategies for preventing cardiovascular issues early on.
Gareth R Eaton — Dr. Gareth Eaton's lab at the University of Denver focuses on pioneering imaging techniques that measure the role of free radicals in cancer and other diseases using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). Their innovative projects include developing a portable EPR tumor imager, which aims to enhance our understanding of tumor environments and improve therapies for various conditions such as lung damage and injuries. This research incorporates advanced technology to make complex imaging more accessible for broad biomedical use.
Galena Rhoades — Dr. Galena Rhoades's lab focuses on preventing postpartum depression, a common issue affecting many new mothers. The research compares the effectiveness of virtual and in-person group interventions designed to support mental health during the perinatal period. By testing these methods, the lab aims to find scalable solutions that can be implemented in healthcare settings to improve the well-being of mothers.
Nicholas Perry — The research lab led by Nicholas Perry at the University of Denver focuses on the health disparities faced by lesbian, gay, and bisexual adults, particularly during the transition to marriage. The lab conducts studies that explore how social stress affects the physical and mental health of same-sex couples during their early married years. By combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews, the research aims to deepen our understanding of the relationship dynamics and health outcomes for these couples in the context of legalized marriage.
