• Deciphering Preserved Autonomic Function after Multiple Sclerosis Rochester, MN

  This study aims to gain a better understanding of the autonomic responses of subjects with multiple sclerosis compared to healthy controls. Utilizing lab-based testing to induce well-characterized autonomic responses, the integrity of the autonomic nervous system through the spinal cord will be assessed though baseline catecholamine/glucocorticoid levels, recordings of sympathetic outflow, and spectral analysis of blood pressure and heart rate variability. Armed with these results, we will generate cardiovascular autonomic phenotypes for individuals to demonstrate normal and abnormal autonomic responses.

• Deciphering Preserved Autonomic Function after Spinal Cord Injury Rochester, MN

  The purpose of this study is to characterize gradients of dysfunction in the autonomic nervous system after spinal cord injury.  

• Influence of cutaneous autonomic innervation in skin pressure injury pathophysiology following spinal cord injury Rochester, MN

  The overall goal of this research is to investigate potential differences in the regulation of skin blood flow in individuals with spinal cord injury.

• Longitudinal Autonomic Characterization As A Predictor For Secondary Medical Complications Post-SCI Rochester, MN

  The purpose of this research is to learn about how the body is able to balance changes in blood pressure, how that changes over time, and how these changes impact a participant's risk of developing medical problems.
