Dami Adingupu

Dami Adingupu, PhD, serves as Assistant Professor in the Biology Department at Ambrose University, leveraging over 10 years of clinical research expertise in non-invasive imaging techniques to investigate vascular derangements across multiple sclerosis, post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection, stroke, and diabetes. Her dual background in clinical and pre-clinical research using disease models informs her interdisciplinary approach to neurovascular pathologies.

Her academic credentials include:

• PhD from the University of Exeter
• BSc from the University of Lincoln

Dr. Adingupu's research program centers on cortical hypoxia mechanisms using frequency domain near-infrared spectroscopy (fdNIRS), with significant contributions to understanding neurovascular coupling in multiple sclerosis and post-COVID-19 cognitive impairment. Her work bridges vascular biology, neuroimaging, and clinical neurology through longitudinal studies of cerebral oxygenation patterns and their functional consequences.

Recent publications reveal consistent thematic focus on fdNIRS applications for detecting cortical hypoxia, establishing correlations between cerebral oxygen saturation deficits and neuropsychological outcomes across neurological conditions. Her research demonstrates reduced interhemispheric connectivity in MS patients and quantifies hypoxia-cognition relationships in long COVID, advancing neurovascular diagnostic frameworks.
