Areas of expertise

mTBI; microRNA; imaging; concussion; neuroanatomy; visuomotor research; tissue trauma healing; skeletal biology; sports trauma

Research

Our research focuses on the mechanisms involved in short regulatory RNA physiology. These molecules (siRNAs, shRNAs, microRNAs) modulate gene expression, thus affecting not only differentiation and developmental maturation of cells and organ systems, but also tissue healing after trauma.
