Nicole Crowe

Nicole Crowe is an Instructor in the Department of Physiology & Anatomy at the University of North Texas Health Science Center (UNTHSC), affiliated with the College of Biomedical and Translational Sciences. Her research focuses on cardiovascular and renal physiology, with emphasis on myocardial metabolism, coronary blood flow dynamics, and diabetic kidney disease. She employs swine models to study postpartum cardiac function and bone structural properties in biomechanical contexts.

Key research areas include the interplay between coronary blood flow and heart muscle metabolism, mechanisms of renal injury amelioration via HDL therapy, and the application of animal models to understand pathophysiological processes. Her work bridges basic science and translational medicine, contributing to advancements in nephrology, cardiology, and musculoskeletal biology.

Dr. Crowe has contributed to peer-reviewed publications in high-impact journals such as the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology and Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology. Her collaborative projects reflect interdisciplinary approaches to understanding complex biological systems.
