Welcome to the Sall lab! We work in two different areas - Brain Development and Altitude adaptation and physiology. Developmental Neuroscience - The Sall group has studied how anesthesia may effect brain development and the role of sex on these outcomes for many years. Recently, we have also become interested in how exposure in early life to cannabis and cannabis products influence development. Current pre-clinical investigations are centered around how gender and sex hormones influence changes in the developing brain and neurobehavioral outcomes after exposure. Altitude physiology and adaptation - This group has interest in how the body adapts to rapid ascent to altitude (hypobaric hypoxia) and how it can be treated.
