STATEMENT OF RESEARCH INTERESTS
We are interested in understanding how microtubules are organized in healthy and injured neurons, as well as molecular pathways that mediate degeneration and regeneration after axon and dendrite injury. Zebrafish, Drosophila and Nematostella vectensis are the three model systems used in the lab for these studies.
