Laura McCulloch's research focuses on the effects of stroke on systemic immune function and its contribution to complications during stroke recovery, such as infections, gastrointestinal dysfunction, and fatigue. As a Sir Henry Dale Research Fellow, she investigates how systemic alterations in the immune system at the time of stroke can influence recovery outcomes. Her background includes an undergraduate honors degree in Immunology from the University of Glasgow and a PhD from the Roslin Institute. Her previous work has highlighted the role of B cell-mediated immune functions in increasing susceptibility to post-stroke infections. Laura aims to identify immunological mechanisms that lead to complications during stroke recovery, which could pave the way for new therapeutic targets to mitigate adverse effects and enhance patient outcomes.
