Identifying neurocircuitry controlling cardiovascular function in humans: implications for exercise control

Abstract:

This thesis is concerned with the neurocircuitry that underpins the cardiovascular response to exercise, which has thus far remained incompletely understood. Small animal studies have provided clues, but with the advent of functional neurosurgery, it has now been made possible to translate these findings to humans.
