Dr. Ruddiman’s PhD focused on understanding the role of arterial structure to function, with important implications in blood pressure control. Specifically, Dr. Ruddiman studied how endothelial cells organized lipids and specific ion channels close to smooth muscle cell to regulate blood vessel dilation. Claire was on the UVA Cardiovascular Training Grant and obtained her own extramural support from a NIH F31 to pursue this work. She is the 2023 recipient of the Pharmacology Outstanding Graduate Student and Robert Haynes Award, Congratulations Claire!!!
