Research Interests

Dr. Gore’s research interests span five areas of investigation of microvascular function and vascular biophysics. They include:

* The mechanisms of fluid exchange and the biophysical nature of the exchange barrier in single capillaries.
* The mechanisms of force generation and movement of single neutrophils and macrophage migrating in vitro and in vivo.
* The pharmacomechanical determinants of arteriolar function in single, isolated arterioles and in microvascular networks.
* The role of cell motility in the formation of atherosclerotic plaques.
* Blood pressure regulation and distribution in the microcirculation.
