About David Fuller

I serve as Associate Dean for Research in the College of Public Health and Health Professions (PHHP). In this role, I actively promote the college’s research mission, in particular, supporting the research efforts of assistant professors and more senior faculty. I manage college resources, such as the PHHP Research Innovation Fund and PHHP Grant Feedback Portal, and lead “PHHP Days”, a two-day showcase of college research.

I direct a research laboratory in the UF McKnight Brain Institute is funded by multiple NIH grants. Current areas of emphasis include 1) electrical, pharmacological, and chemogenetic stimulation of spinal neurons to promote respiratory motor recovery after spinal cord injury; 2) therapeutic uses of oxygen in neurodegenerative diseases, and 3) understanding the control of breathing in Pompe disease, and testing gene therapy approaches for this disorder.

I serve as PI of an NIH T32 Training Grant https://pt.phhp.ufl.edu/train-with-us/t-32/. This T32 training program in Neuromuscular Plasticity has been continually funded for 20 years, and provides interdisciplinary training of clinicians and basic scientists in neuromuscular plasticity and rehabilitation science.

Lastly, I am the Associate Director of the Breathing Research and Therapeutics Center (BREATHE). https://breathe.phhp.ufl.edu/. BREATHE brings researchers together from throughout the UF campus in a collaborative effort to advance the understanding and treatment of neuromuscular disorders that compromise breathing.
