Dr Connie Ow

Dr Connie Ow aspires to be an academic researcher focused on translational research. Her long-term goal is to develop new therapies to prevent and/or delay the progression of cardio-renovascular diseases that is driven by a complex interplay between multiple organs and tissues.

​

Dr Ow’s current research focuses on determining the role of tissue hypoxia in the brain and kidney in the pathogenesis of sepsis. With that, she hopes to develop diagnostics and therapeutics aimed at improving patient outcomes and, in turn, prevent the development of long-term adverse sequalae (such as delirium and chronic kidney disease) upon recovery from the initial septic episode.
