Research Interests
The Faculty maintains an extensive database of individual research profiles. Structured around a fixed list of 70 broad research terms, profiles are maintained by staff themselves and are regularly updated. Be sure to make regular visits...

| Dr Geoffrey Lambert
Prince of Wales Clinical School - Department of MedicineStatement of Interests:
Graduate and post-graduate research experience in cardiovascular, autonomic and CNS pharmacology and physiology. Ph D thesis entitled "Studies on the pharmacology and chemistry of certain harmala and yohimbine alkaloids." Postdoctoral research on central mechanisms involved in cardiovascular function, neurophysiological and biochemical interactions of aminergic neuron populations in the CNS, dopamine mediated behavioural responses, mode of action of hallucinogens. Chemical and hormonal control of the growth of skin, wool and associated structures with particular reference to the roles of neurotransmitter control of blood flow and hormones. Role of photoperiodicity and pineal-hypothalamic-pituitary system in regulation of biological processes Neurogenic and humoral control of the cerebral and extracerebral vasculature, role of monoaminergic brainstem nuclei and sensory nuclei on craniovascular reactivity of relevance to migraine. Pathways and mechanisms of craniovascular sensation at a peripheral, spinal cord, thalamic and cortical levels. Mechanisms of modulation of craniovascular sensation. The relationship between cortical neural activity and blood flow. Reactivity of intra- and extra-cerebral cranial circulations to vasoactive drugs and to anti-migraine agents. Influence of brainstem structures on cortical function and pain control mechanisms in the trigeminal sensory system. Influence of antimigraine drugs on the mechanism of cranio-vascular sensation.
