Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

David J. Bunnell's research has focused on experimental diabetes models, particularly islet transplantation in nonhuman primates. His work has investigated methods to induce diabetes, such as temporary arterial embolization and selective arterial injection of streptozotocin, and explored the use of immunosuppressive agents like rabbit antithymocyte globulin and sirolimus to support prolonged islet allograft function. Bunnell has also examined the metabolic function of transplanted islet mass in primate models under rapamycin monotherapy. His research interests extend to physician assistants in cardiothoracic surgery, medical education, and the study of atrial fibrillation. Bunnell's scholarly output includes nine publications with 51 citations, and an h-index of 3.
