Research
Focus
- Dr. Morris' research has contributed to a growing recognition of the critical role of arginase in hemolytic disorders, asthma and pulmonary hypertension. The mechanistic overlap of these otherwise genotypically diverse disorders reflects a common paradigm involving alterations of the arginine metabolome and redox biology, the focus of her research.
