Biography
Our research integrates genetic and genomic investigation in human subjects and model organisms, with the goal of understanding brain function and aging and improving the treatment of neurologic disease. We focus on Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease, two incurable neurodegenerative disorders and experimental paradigms for the age-dependent failure of brain cognitive and motor control in humans.
