Andriy Yabluchanskiy, MD, PhD

Biography

Dr. Andriy Yabluchanskiy received his MD degree in 2006 from the V.N. Karazin Kharkiv National University in Kharkiv, Ukraine. In 2012, he received his PhD degree in Neuroscience from University College London in London, UK. He received post-doctoral training in cardiovascular research and aging at the University of Texas Health Sciences Center at San Antonio and at the University of Mississippi Medical Center. In 2018 he joined the faculty at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center as an Assistant Professor of Geriatric Medicine at the Reynolds Oklahoma Center on Aging at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, which was then reformed into the Center for Geroscience and Healthy Brain Aging.

His work is focused on the cardio- and microvascular complications of aging. His unique combination of expertise in neuroscience, cardiovascular pathophysiology and aging allowed him to initiate a research program focusing on the understudied and clinically important role of microvascular mechanisms in the development of vascular cognitive impairment. His laboratory utilizes a broad spectrum of techniques including methods to investigate cerebromicrovascular function, measure cerebral blood flow and characterize cognitive function in human subjects and in animal models of age-related diseases. Dr. Yabluchanskiy’s long term goal is to develop novel treatments to preserve cognitive health in high-risk geriatric patients by conducting both basic science and translational research on the relationship between neurovascular mechanisms and cognitive impairment.
