Cerebrovascular function refers to the complex interactions and processes that occur within the blood vessels of the brain. This includes the regulation of blood flow to provide the necessary oxygen and nutrients to brain cells, as well as the maintenance of proper blood pressure and vascular structure. Research in this area focuses on understanding the mechanisms involved in cerebrovascular function, including how blood vessels respond to changes in physiology and pathology, as well as how disruptions in cerebrovascular function can contribute to various neurological conditions such as stroke, dementia, and migraine. By studying cerebrovascular function, researchers aim to develop new strategies for diagnosing and treating these conditions, ultimately improving brain health and function.
