Profiles in "Neurobiology" Expertise Area

  • Dr Lukas's work focuses on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, which are relevant to a number of neurological and other diseases, in addition to their roles in nicotine dependence and tobacco-related diseases.
  • Andrews' lab utilizes neural organoids, transplantation models and omics approaches to study human brain development and disease.
  • My current research focuses on neurosurgical fluorescence technology, intraoperative imaging, and quantitative analysis of neurosurgical approaches.
  • The Barthel lab examines cancer genome evolution in model systems and patient tumors. Currently seeking a computationally inclined graduate student to work on projects in cancer genome assembly and long-read sequencing.
  • Ashton's research investigates synaptic dysfunction in Frontotemporal Dementia.
  • Gradi Bamfonga, BS in Biomedical Eng. (Univ. of Rochester), is a PhD candidate at Arizona State University under Dr. Madeline Andrews, focusing on the impact of mTOR pathway mutations on neurodevelopment.
  • My research focuses on understanding neuronal circuits in hearing and balance. Specifically, I am studying the role of unipolar brush cells in cerebellar circuits.
