Vicky Yao

Vicky Yao, PhD X-twitter Google There has been considerable progress in our understanding of genetics since the sequencing of the first human genome in the early 2000s. Sequencing and genomic measurement technologies continue to advance, yielding more and more high resolution snapshots of experimental and clinical states. The bottleneck now lies in cleaning, interpreting, and

Tara Tracy

Tara Tracy, PhD X-twitter Synapses are specialized structures that are critical for the transmission of information between neurons in the brain. Fine-tuning of the electrochemical activity at synapses underlies cognitive processes. In Alzheimer’s disease, memory loss coincides with synapse deterioration. The Tracy lab is investigating the molecular events that lead to synapse dysfunction and cognitive

Gustavo A. Rodriguez

Gustavo A Rodriguez, PhD Linkedin Google My research is focused on understanding how neuronal populations in the entorhinal cortex (EC) and hippocampus (HIPP) are affected by amyloid-beta (Aβ) and tau pathology, which are hallmark features of Alzheimer’s disease. I employ optogenetics / chemogenetics and in vivo electrophysiology in my research, and am interested in how neuronal modulation

Ke Zhang

Ke Zhang, PhD The Cellular Stress in Neurodegeneration Laboratory of Ke Zhang, Ph.D., uses the power of genetics, biochemistry, cell biology and neuroscience to understand the cellular and molecular basis of neurodegeneration and to develop therapeutic approaches. His laboratory focuses on two major questions: How do different pathophysiological defects interconnect to drive pathogenesis in neurodegeneration?
