Daniel Craighead, PhD, assistant professor in the School of Kinesiology and director of the Integrative Cardiovascular and Exercise Physiology Laboratory (ICEPL), published a manuscript titled "Oxidative stress suppresses internal carotid artery dilation to hypercapnia in older adults," examining how reactive oxygen species impact brain blood vessel function. The results demonstrate that oxidative stress impairs brain blood vessel health in older adults, but not younger adults, with potential sex-specific effects.
