Research Interests
Dr Paul Coats is an active researcher within cardiovascular research in SIPBS. His research focus is vascular physiology (health) and pathophysiology (disease). The studies of both large and small blood vessels are core to the research directed by Dr Paul Coats.
Specific research work:
- Role of reactive oxygen species in modulating acute vascular contractile responses in the microcirculation
- Effect of chronic ischaemic vascular disease on blood vessel structure and function
- Identifying mechanisms of vascular restenosis in response to stent insertion or balloon angioplasty
- Mechanisms underlying arteriovenous fistula (AVF) stenosis that occurs in people undergoing renal dialysis
