Expertise

How do nerve cells form precise synaptic connections and how do those connections normally function? We study developing circuitry in the retina and brainstem, the repair and functioning of synaptic connections, and control of microglia moving to nerve injuries.


Interest in the functioning, development and regeneration of connections in the nervous system.
