People & Lab
Lab
We aim to understand how brain blood flow is regulated, all while enjoying the beautiful Colorado outdoors. We particularly focus on how ion channels within the brain microcirculation regulate the vascular function with the goal of deepening our understanding of neurological disorders.

Dean Kareemo
I received my Ph.D. training in Pharmacology at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus where I developed a strong interest in neuroplasticity. In the Dabertrand Lab, my research focuses on how neurovascular signaling is altered in small vessel disease and downstream metaplastic neuronal states that underlie early cognitive decline and dementia. Outside the lab, I enjoy playing chess, pickleball, and spending time with my family
