Brief description At present, there are no effective therapies for reducing brain damage which can occur after acute brain insults including birth asphyxia. This project aims to study whether increasing a naturally occurring protective protein (HIF) in the brain can minimize brain damage in a model of perinatal brain injury. We plan to validate HIF as a novel therapeutic target for reduce brain injury and promote brain repair processes.
