David Kleinfeld, Ph.D.

Dr. Kleinfeld’s research is advancing our understanding of blood flow in the brain and how blood flow dynamics change after blockage (such as in stroke) and in response to neural activity. Using a range of behavioral, physiological, and imaging approaches, studies will define the vascular architecture in the hippocampus - a brain region that is highly sensitive to reduced blood flow, and investigate how patterns of flow are coordinated across the brain.
