Sanna joined the Seals lab in 2021 and is currently a fourth year PhD student in the lab studying the role of mitochondrial oxidative stress in age- and menopause-related vascular dysfunction. She is also funded by an NIH F31 Predoctoral award to determine whether chronic MitoQ supplementation improves cerebrovascular and cognitive function in older adults.
