Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Alice Alexander's research has explored various aspects of human health and disease, with recent publications focusing on genetic predispositions to cardiovascular conditions and the treatment of osteoid osteomas. Her work has investigated the prevalence of the amyloidogenic transthyretin (TTR) V122I allele in African American populations, examining its association with congestive heart failure and its significance within large cohort studies like ARIC and CHS. In the area of interventional medicine, Alexander has contributed to the development and study of percutaneous electrode ablation for osteoid osteomas.

Earlier in her career, Alexander's research delved into fundamental biological mechanisms, including the role of specific amino acids in ricin toxin activity and the molecular basis of gamma heavy chain disease. Her work also included in vitro studies on histamine release. Alexander has received federal funding from the National Science Foundation for workshops related to musculoskeletal biology, serving as Co-PI on two awards totaling $20,000. She leads a research group and has collaborated with several colleagues at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, co-authoring multiple publications with Manisha Singh, Sowmya Patil, Rebecca Moreira, and Ruth Fissel.
