Dr. Joshi's research interests include assessing the safety and efficacy of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) when combined with controlled hypothermia in neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, use of adjuvant therapies like vasopressin to prevent ECMO or to provide stability during ECMO initiation. Her research endeavors also involve inflammatory reactions associated with the initiation of ECMO.
