Temporary Research Technician E

About Us

Traumatic brain injury affects thousands of people around the world. Our lab studies mechanisms underlying recovery following traumatic brain injury and have discovered that injuries such as TBI induce the hippocampus to activate neural progenitors which then populate and repair the injured hippocampus. We study the mechanisms underlying injury-induced neurogenesis, particularly those associated with the Alzheimer disease related gene ApoE.
