Dr. Kristian Doyle is an Associate Professor in the Department of Immunobiology with a secondary appointment in the Department of Neurology. He earned his Bachelor's degree from the University of Sussex in the UK, his PhD from Oregon Health & Science University, and completed postdoctoral training at Stanford University. Since establishing his lab at the University of Arizona in 2013, Dr. Doyle has focused on stroke immunology, particularly the mechanisms of chronic inflammation post-stroke and its impact on recovery. The goal of his lab is to develop novel therapeutic strategies that improve quality of life in stroke survivors. The Doyle Lab
