Research Summary
We study the mechanisms governing the development of the mammalian brain. We are particularly interested in understanding how the perturbation of basic biological processes leads to clinically significant brain pathology. Within the Yale Program on Neurogenetics, we study the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying cerebrovascular and structural brain disorders associated with specific genetic lesions. Insight into these questions will shed light on fundamental biological processes and provide information relevant for the design of therapeutic approaches.
