Biography
Dr. Cornelius is an Associate Professor and the Director of Pre-Clinical Research in the Department of Emergency Medicine at the University of Mississippi Medical Center.
Dr. Cornelius is currently a member of Frontiers in Physiology and BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth. She also serves as a reviewer for a number of journals including Hypertension, American Journal of Physiology: Regulatory and Integrative Physiology, Ciculation, and Journal of Thoracic Disease. She has published over 60 peer reviewed manuscripts, book chapters, and editorials in leading journals for the field of hypertension research and cardiovascular physiology.
Dr. Cornelius serves in multiple leadership capacities. She currently serves on the AMericna Heart Association's Council on Hypertension Leadership Committee and the American Physiological Society's Financial Committee and. She recently began her term as a standing member of the NIH Systemic Injury from Environmental Exposure Study section and as Chair of the AHA Fellowship Grant Reveiw Panel. At the institutional level, Dr. Cornelius serves as the Vice Chair of the Institutional Biosafety Committee, a member of the Research Compliance Committee and Co-Director of the MCCTR Mentor Academy. Dr. Cornelius also lectures in the medical, dental, and graduate school courses, and serves as a research mentor for trainees at all levels.
Dr. Cornelius has received several awards throughout her career including the UNCF-Merck Graduate Dissertation Science Research Fellowship, the American Physiological Society Minority Travel Award, the American Physiological Society Water and Electrolyte Homeostasis Postdoctoral Research with Distinction Award, and the American Heart Association’s Council on Hypertension New Investigator’s Award. She was selected as UMMC's Early Career Investigator (2019), the WEH Section New Investigator of the Year (2020) and the GWIMS Early Career Rising Star (2020).
Dr. Cornelius’s laboratory has research focus in two major areas. The first is related to understanding how immune system activation mechanistically promotes the pathogenesis of hypertension and intrauterine growth restriction during pregnancy. Using multiple experimental models of preeclampsia, Dr. Cornelius’s lab investigates the renal and vascular mechanisms during preeclampsia and how they are influenced by inflammatory and cytotoxic immune cells and mediators. The second is related to understanding mechanisms that lead to the development of multi-organ injury during sepsis. Patients with sepsis have increased platelet activation are prone to develop multi-organ failure and have poor clinical outcomes. Dr. Cornelius’s laboratory uses a modified cecal ligation and puncture model that mimics characteristics of sepsis to investigate an important role for activated platelets in the development of multi-organ injury in sepsis.
