Allan Gottschalk Lab
Research in the Allan Gottschalk Lab focuses on the mechanisms behind neuropathic pain, chronic... pain related to nerve injury. We are investigating biophysical models of the impact of general anesthesia on the central nervous system; informational aspects of sensory perception and the representation of sensory input; nonlinear dynamics of respiratory pattern generation; and acute perioperative pain. view more
Research Areas: sensory perception, nerve injury, central nervous system, neuropathy, neuropathic pain, anesthesia, pain -
Jennifer Lee-Summers Lab
Research in the Jennifer Lee-Summers Lab explores cerebrovascular autoregulation, particularly ...during anesthesia. Our previous studies have examined cerebrovascular autoregulation and blood flow in patients with hypothermia, in neonatal patients with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy and in pediatric patients with moyamoya disease. view more
Research Areas: hypothermia, moyamoya, neonatal, cerebrovascular, anesthesia, pediatrics -
Joanne Shay Lab
Lab WebsiteThe Joanne Shay Lab primarily conducts research on pediatric pain management techniques. Our st...udies have explored pain management in special-needs children and patients, and we have studied non-traditional pain management methods, such as regional anesthesia and peripheral nerve blocks in children, medical acupuncture, and remote anesthesia services. We also have an ongoing interest in the business of medicine. view more

John Sampson Lab
Lab WebsiteResearchers in the John Sampson Lab investigate relevant, appropriate, affordable and sustainab...le ways to improve anesthesia and perioperative care in low-resource settings. The team’s research interests include the Universal Anesthesia Machine; interpersonal relationships between anesthesia providers and their patients; how the quality of those relationships impacts professionalism, autonomy, anxiety, patient cooperation and patient satisfaction; how disease influences cerebrovascular reactivity as measured by MRI; and how education and communication can improve medical care in Africa and other austere environments. The team is currently working with clinicians in Ghana, Ethiopia and Kenya. view more
Research Areas: global health, Africa, perioperative care, cerebrovascular reactivity, patient-provider relationships, anesthesia -
Marie Hanna Lab
The Marie Hanna Lab conducts research on key topics within the field of anesthesiology. Our int...erests include both regional and obstetric anesthesia as well as patient-controlled analgesia, pain measurement, post-operative pain and acute pain management. Examples of our work include researching whether a surgery patient’s perception of pain control affects his or her satisfaction level and a comparison of air and liquid for use in the loss-of-resistance technique during labor epidurals. view more

Michael A. Rosen Lab
Research in the Michael A. Rosen Lab primarily focuses on patient safety and simulation-based h...ealth care training and technology. Recent work provided examples of how human factors experts can collaborate with health care professionals and simulationists (experts in the design and implementation of simulation) to use contemporary simulation to improve health care delivery. Another recent study examined the anesthesia practice at two tertiary care hospitals in Sierra Leone, West Africa, where anesthesia is associated with high mortality rates. We identified gaps in the application of internationally recommended anesthesia practices at both hospitals, likely caused by lack of available resources. view more

Nicholas Dalesio Lab
Research in the Nicholas Dalesio Lab is currently examining pre-surgical predictors of post-sur...gical respiratory complications in children with obstructive sleep apnea and sleep-disordered breathing; the impact of anesthesia and pharmacological agents on upper airway physiology; and techniques for pediatric airway imaging. view more
