biography
Dr. Robert Buckingham MD, FACP
Dr. Buckingham has been a practicing physician for 46 years and has engaged in basic science research for over 50 years. His extensive experience in medicine, moreover, spans the full spectrum, from outpatient care to the sickest patients in intensive care units. Through these experiences, he has identified repeated patterns of illness. Interestingly, these patterns often correlate with pro-inflammatory behaviors, which, in turn, lead to the release of vascular inflammatory free radicals into the central circulation.
Therefore, his deep dive into molecular science has revealed how these free radicals disrupt the capillary cell’s precisely timed “dance step” rhythm. This rhythm is essential for counterbalancing inflammatory responses. When disrupted, however, the capillary cell’s ability to perform diminishes, causing chronic inflammation signals to flood the interstitial space. Consequently, the nearby end organ cells begin to break down due to the signaling and metabolic chaos in the interstitial space and its capillary cell partner.
At the sunset of his career, Dr. Buckingham takes great joy in sharing these insights into the delicate balance of endothelial cell function. Ultimately, his research helps explain how cells maintain their functionality, or, conversely, how they become vulnerable to chronic inflammation and disease.
