A long-term goal of my laboratory is to address mechanisms of cellular fatty acid metabolism and their implication in neuronal functions. Fatty acids are... Read more about Jeeyun Chung
My lab explores new strategies for the treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD) and related synucleinopathies such as Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), Multi-...
The human brain is a highly organized structure containing myriad axon tracts that follow precise pathways and make predictable connections, yet only a...
Neurons acquire multiple functional properties through an experience-dependent development during a limited time in early postnatal life (“critical periods”).... Read more about Michela Fagiolini
The molecular mechanisms underlying neurodegeneration in human disorders like Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease remain mysterious, in part...
Our broad interest is to understand how cell-cell signaling molecules set up spatial pattern, particularly in the formation of neuronal connections. We...
My lab is broadly interested in the mechanisms of signaling and transport across cellular membranes. Our research encompasses several protein families: Nramp... Read more about Rachelle Gaudet
