Research Involves
The proposed research program will enhance our collective understanding of the etiology of stroke by identifying and validating novel genetic and molecular markers to assist in the development of effective prevention strategies. Prevention holds the greatest promise of reducing the burden of stroke since even the most promising acute therapies have limited ability to alter the outcome of a stroke. Integrating genetic, gene expression and protein data, Dr. Pare's proposed research will provide an innovative approach expected to lead to the development of novel risk prediction algorithms. This builds on his unique expertise in cardiovascular genetics, biomarkers and bioinformatics.
