Rate My Professor Lucinda Krause

Her research focuses on sex differences in the regulation of arterial pressure, particularly the involvement of the renin-angiotensin system and its contribution to differences in cardiovascular disease development between men and women. Key areas include hypertension, ageing, kidney function, hypoxia, and renal sympathetic nerves, with ongoing projects such as 'Sex-differences in cellular aging and cardiovascular disease: Role of the AngIV/IRAP axis' (2022–2025). Krause has received notable awards, including the Australian Postgraduate Award (2005), Best Early Career Presentation Award at the RAS Club New Horizons conference (2010), Foundation for High Blood Pressure Research Young Investigator Travel Awards (2012 and 2014), and International Society of Hypertension New Investigator of the Month (September 2014). Selected publications include 'Considering sex as a biological variable in basic and clinical studies: An endocrine society scientific statement' (Endocrine Reviews, 2021), 'In Aged Females, the Enhanced Pressor Response to Angiotensin II Is Attenuated By Estrogen Replacement via an Angiotensin Type 2 Receptor-Mediated Mechanism' (Hypertension, 2021), 'Relaxin Attenuates Organ Fibrosis via an Angiotensin Type 2 Receptor Mechanism in Aged Hypertensive Female Rats' (Kidney360, 2021), 'Renal functional effects of the highly selective AT2R agonist, β-Pro7 Ang III, in normotensive rats' (Clinical Science, 2020), and 'Impact of choice of kinetic model for the determination of transcutaneous FITC-sinistrin clearance in rats with streptozotocin-induced type 1 diabetes' (Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 2020).
