In our lab, we research how the nervous system works and how it responds and repairs itself due to the damage caused by injury or disease.
Our two main goals are to:
Discover strategies for enhancing neuronal regrowth and staling neuronal loss after injury.
Understand the nervous system response and recovery during damage caused by disease.
A unique feature of our lab is that we are focusing on integrating various omics techniques with basic neurobiology and systems analyses to develop a more systematic understanding of nerve injury and neurodegenerative conditions. Our long term research interest involves identification of the molecular mechanism responsible for neural repair and neuronal degeneration.
