The goal of Dr. Anderson’s research program is to understand how risk factors for cardiovascular disease, especially hypertension (high blood pressure), cardiac hypertrophy (abnormal growth of the heart), and diabetes promote the development of heart failure. Her ultimate aim is to identify new therapies that prevent or slow the onset of heart failure. To achieve this aim, Dr. Anderson’s laboratory uses several models of cardiovascular disease of escalating complexity ranging from cultured heart muscle cells, to isolated hearts and arteries, to hearts and arteries in vivo.
Dr. Hope Anderson is a professor of pharmacy and vice-dean of graduate studies for Rady Faculty of Health Sciences.
She is also a principal investigator in the Canadian Centre for Agri-Food Research in Health and Medicine (CCARM) at the St. Boniface Hospital Research Centre.
Prior academic appointments include associate dean for the Faculty of Graduate Studies.
Dr. Anderson is published extensively in the research areas of cardiovascular disease, including hypertension, vascular disease, cardiac hypertrophy.
