Cognition, perception, and behavior all rely on the activity of precisely organized networks of neurons. We have a strong understanding of the basic...
The mission of the Greka laboratory is to define fundamental aspects of membrane protein biology and dissect mechanisms of cellular homeostasis. The...
The brain, which represents 2% of the body mass but consumes 20% of the body energy at rest, is therefore highly dependent on oxygen and nutrients supply...
Our research focuses on identifying how cell biological processes are disrupted in Parkinson's disease and aging, with the overarching goal of our work to...
The major research interest of our laboratory is the genetic control of the development and behavior of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, with the goal of... Read more about H Robert Horvitz
Dr. Hyman's laboratory studies the anatomical and molecular basis of dementia in Alzheimer's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies. Approaches focus on... Read more about Bradley Theodore Hyman

Our lab's research focuses on hair cells, which are the sensory cells of the inner ear. Hair cells detect sub-nanometer vibrations, induced by sounds or...
The goal of our laboratory is to prevent the causes of brain degeneration and loss of neuronal function. In addition, we aim to repair brain function by...

The cortex develops hand-in-glove with its cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-filled ventricles whose walls harbor neural stem cells (NSCs) destined to become neurons... Read more about Kristopher Kahle
Work in my lab is focused on understanding how signals in the brain lead to particular patterns of behavior. We utilize a combination of behavioral,...
The Khurana lab uses stem cells, genomic analysis and systems cell biology approaches to better understand and develop patient-specific therapies for...
