Research Focus
The research lab led by Dr. Sarah Hoffmann Lindsey focuses on understanding how sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone affect cardiometabolic health in men and women. Their studies utilize innovative approaches to investigate the vascular responses to these hormones and aim to develop therapies that enhance cardiovascular protection while maintaining metabolic benefits. Through this work, they hope to improve treatment strategies for hormone therapy in patients.
