Research Focus
Dr. Gopalakrishnan leads the Wound Healing and Tissue Repair Analytics Lab, focusing on deciphering the complex mechanisms of tissue repair and developing innovative therapies to accelerate healing and improve patient outcomes. His research, which spans from investigating the role of autoregulation in cerebral blood flow to pioneering the use of near-infrared light for treating retinal degeneration, aims to translate basic science discoveries into novel treatments for chronic debilitating conditions. His current program seeks to characterize the pathways involved in healing and develop targeted interventions. Dr. Gopalakrishnan co-founded Auxillum Health, a health tech startup leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning to predict wound healing trajectories.
